It's honestly the best place to buy electronics at this point if you don't have a Microcenter nearby. I buy all my laptops and TVs there now. Once upon a time, retail was the more expensive option, as they marked up prices and couldn't compete with the low overhead of online sellers. Now that equation has completely flipped, and anything sold online will rapidly inflate in price due to dropshippers and scalpers. The only way to get a fair deal anymore is brick and mortar, and they often have (real) discounts and 0% financing.
