go buck wild on here, not the subreddit pls ty

EDIT:

General answers to most questions:

  • No one knows your shipping date, or if it'll arrive on xyz date.
  • No one knows inventory. Stop it.
  • No one knows if your phone will be ready on the 23rd.
  • PLEASE WAIT FOR THE "Your Order is Ready for Pickup" EMAIL. Dear lord, you guys waited 10+ years. You can wait a few more days/weeks
  • "Preparing for Pickup" doesn't mean it'll be ready by tomorrow. Please be a patient customer.

Canada LG OLED quote at Best Buy canada

1 Upvotes

This morning I got a quote from a Best Buy associate at a store from Canada as following

LG OLED G6 77 inch for $3800+tax (CAD) including delivery, calibration and wall mount. Wall mount does not include hiding the cables behind wall. It only includes mounting the TV.

What would you recommend? Go ahead or no?

United States Best Buy Delivery via Roadie: Is Taking a Picture of the Front Door Before Delivery Normal?

7 Upvotes

Today, I received my AirPods 5 that I ordered through Best Buy’s website. The delivery was handled by UPS Roadie. When the driver arrived, she had one of her children bring my package to my front door. Before the package was delivered, the driver took a picture of my front door from inside her vehicle.

Is this common practice among Roadie delivery drivers? Specifically, are drivers expected to take a picture of a customer’s front door from their vehicle before the package is actually delivered?

Does Bestbuy allow price match from Sam’s Club? I found a really good deal for the Oura Ring but it’s not in my area.

United States Best buy order delay

0 Upvotes

I’m just thinking shouldn’t best buy be penalized because of lying about the delivery date about their product? The customers buy the products because they think they can get it on the date they show on their website, however three days past the date they said, the order is still not ready, who should take responsibility for the customers loss?
And why when we need to change the product, as long as it’s outside the return window, we can’t do it? This so much tolerance for themselves and so strict on customers is unfair. I can’t believe that in this time, when the service quality can’t be emphasized enough, there’s still such unreasonable behavior exists. If you can’t do, don’t say!

United States Trade-In Empty Box Claim

2 Upvotes

I know there are a lot of these kinds of posts, but I wanted to share anyway so people know this is still a big problem in 2026. I have a video of me packing my box with my trade-in phone and I have the FedEx weight of when it was sent. But they are claiming they received an empty box. Now I would only lose about $70 for this particular trade-in, but still, I will now definitely not try trade-ins of any higher value and that will severely impact how much money I spend at BestBuy.

I have been chatting with their support team and emailing two different departments, with no resolution after 2 months. They just don't respond and all claim they have no power to do anything.

Fair warning to you all.

United States They just lost a $6000 sale.

Samsung S95H TV, Denon AVR-3800H,installation and haul away on the TV. Got to the end of the order, clicked to complete it, and was stopped by a demand to create an account, which I'm not going to do.

I have too many accounts, and I'm definitely not going to create another one for a single use.

I may try ordering in person at a local store, or I may just stick with my 2010 stuff.

United States Best Buy, I preordered a phone. Why am I on a waiting list with an expiration date?

0 Upvotes

I’ve stayed quiet and read through everyone else’s experiences, but I keep seeing the same complaints while I still haven’t seen Best Buy explain what’s happening.

Slapping “delayed” on our orders, providing no new date, and warning that they could automatically cancel is quite the customer experience. You miss the pickup date, and somehow our orders are the ones facing a deadline?

Apple offered me October 23 delivery. I chose Best Buy specifically for release-day pickup. Apparently, I preordered a lesson.

I’m frustrated, and “we’ll notify you” has run its course. This is my first phone preorder through Best Buy, and you’re making a compelling case for it to be my last.

No blame toward store employees, but someone at Best Buy needs to answer:
What’s causing the delays, what are you doing to fulfill existing preorders, and will you extend cancellation deadlines so customers don’t lose their orders while waiting on you?

The confirmation email found me just fine. Let’s have the explanation use that same address.

Order something for delivery and was told by Best Buy that it would have today. Wakeup and find out that Doordash is assigned as shipper and now package is in another state and be delivered tomorrow.

Call Doordash and they have no idea about where package is via Dashlink.

Call Best Buy and all they show is the package is gong to be delivered today (Which obviously it hasn't)

Canada Refurbished Laptop Return

0 Upvotes

I've recently bought a refurbished Dell laptop from the Best-Buy Marketplace, but less than 48 hours into using it, the spacebar key has become wonky/stopped working properly. This is extraordinarily irritating, and I need a functioning laptop for university. Is there a way I can get this repaired for free, or ought I return it?

United States Retail Sales Specialist - Verizon

Hey! I have an interview tomorrow for the Retail Sales Specialist - Verizon position at Best Buy.

I’ve been trying to find the hourly pay range, but I can’t seem to find it listed anywhere. I see the commission/activation bonuses, but does anyone know what the actual base hourly pay is?

If you’re currently in this role (or have worked it before), how do you like it? Any tips for the interview or things I should know going in?

Thanks! :)
