I recently ordered a laptop from Best Buy. I thought it is a pretty good deal (Toshiba-Satellite Laptop with Intel® Core™2 Duo Processor-Midnight Breeze-L505-S5984). It cost about $150 less then regular price, but has to be picked up at store. I could not find any store that is close to my home have it. So I chose the closest which is 2 hours away. Very soon, I got confirm email said it’s ready for me to pick up. I thought it’s not too bad if I can get this good deal. But, few hours later, I got phone call from store said their system messed up, they don’t actually have it, need me to wait while they have to transfer from other location. I said ok, I probably pick up next weekend. About 3 days later some one from store left me message and emailed me saying it’s ready to be picked up. So here today morning I drove more than 2 hours (because it’s snowing) to there, excited that I finally can have it. You know what, their store system messed up again! Don’t have it! After long search and talk to manager (luckily staffs are nice), manager was able to find one from other store location (let’s hope it’s the right one), they will ship to me next week some time. But, it this $150 price difference worth it? I am think I will probably never do this again, if paying this more can save me such trouble, I’d rather pay.
update – 2 weeks later
I have finally received my laptop through ups shipped by BestBuy, and package condition is good, thank god it is the model what I have ordered. So far I am happy. But still that is the lesson I have learned.
Да, ответ почти такой же, как и у меня….
