Guest Anonymous Posted December 10, 2004 Share Posted December 10, 2004 well, you see there ads on tv, every rapper that sells a cd on tv has a best buy logo in the corner, direct tv, etc they are in everything well you guys will love this http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=14991&item=5737515033&rd=1 check this out bb has its hands in e-bay now circuit city does as well check out www.tradingcircuit.com they have all their items up 2 it just amazes me, i think that as a corp that is a really smart move, this is probably the best way to compete with online discounters etc... anyways thats my 2 cents Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ARPRINCE Posted December 11, 2004 Share Posted December 11, 2004 SEARS has an eBAY outlet too so it was not a surprise to me when you mentioned BB has an ebay outlet account. Company wise, I think it's a good move to dispose off "old/unwanted" inventories. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WJE Posted December 12, 2004 Share Posted December 12, 2004 However, if you review the auctions that Best Buy has posted, it is for non-current merchandise. They are selling older models of the goods. For example, the Klipsch Synergy series being sold by them is not the latest version like they stock in the stores. My guess is that once they pull an item from inventory, the recall the products from the stores and back to the warehouse. BB then puts these items up for bid on eBay.

lipinski Posted December 12, 2004 Share Posted December 12, 2004 don't count on the fact the only the older models is what you get online. I wanted the latest hardon kardon DVD player to go with my HT receiver. I looked at HK's website, their top of the line DVD player today is a HK DVD31. Only model that will play the audio DVDs, right. I looked at their website for local retailers, Circuit City only in Austin Texas. Went to Circuit City, they only had the HK DVD22. almost the same player only it won't play the DVD-audio disks. I asked the sales guy about the HKDVD31, he said, you can only get it online right now. HK does that for about 6 months with their new models. HUH!!! surprised the hell out of me.

Guest Anonymous Posted December 13, 2004 Share Posted December 13, 2004 well what can you expect? not much..... alright after being on both ends of the spectrum myself i want to give my 2 cents well on the customer side they are pretty brutal and its hard to get them to fold and since the salesmen will say just about anything to sell and you find out its not true and *** backwards of the policy the customer gets hosed over on the employee side: there is a policy for a reason so everyone gets treated the exact same, it is a law that everyone gets treated the same and thus the point of a policy and when people do not meet the requirments thats life, its tough but the policy is plastered everywhere recipts all over the store in brochures etc. Since the prods will say anythign to sell you can't believe what they say you have to investigate it for yourself it sucks i know, but thats life.... in the end people at customer service don't feel any better about screwing the customer because joe or john lied to them when they bought there cell phone, but we did laugh at the people that just lost it in anger... that won't get you anywhere.... and the people in customer service know that the line is really long but there are scheduling budgets and all sorts of stuff and unfortunatly thats just the way things are anyways take it for what its worth, but its the truth as i have seen it from both sides....
