They will also price match Amazon in most cases. I hear a lot of people complain about Best Buy but I’ve made a few big purchases at my local Best Buy store and their employees were super helpful and friendly. I’d much rather shop there and get the item immediately rather than wait two days, personally.
- macNchz 8y agoI used to have a very low opinion of Best Buy but I’ve recently found myself going there for the majority of electronics I buy...no shipping or filtering through counterfeits like on Amazon, and there’s one that’s open 24/7 within walking distance of my office in NYC. Employees are friendly and helpful if not extraordinarily knowledgeable. Hard to beat on the convenience front.
- nsporillo 8y agoBest Buy refused to price match Phillips Hue bulbs for me because they were apparently a "prime" only price. Made no sense for me to pay more ($20 across 4 bulbs) to get them that day in person.

In the end, if you get a bad one, it's usually apparent within a day or two, and it's far easier to deal with in a store. I think I just have bad luck with TVs and Monitors though. Despite doing research, about half the time I order either via Amazon/Delivery, I regret it (last time 42" 4K monitor was DOA). Almost everything else, I tend to favor Amazon though. But I find myself looking locally more and more.
