Honestly, bestbuy seems to have gotten better within the last few years. 8 years ago I definitely agreed with you, but in the last 2 years over half of my tech purchases have been from them. Their prices have been either matched or cheaper than Amazon, and not having the to wait on shipping is really nice. Plus, I don't really worry about counterfeit goods like I do with Amazon. Still nowhere in the same league as microcenter, but unfortunately there isn't a microcenter anywhere close to me where I currently live. Although the overpriced premium cables are definitely still a thing...
