Best Buy

they have a lot of the things i'm looking for but sometimes it's hard to get help as they don't seem to have enough staff. more

This particular best buy location is less busy than the one in Lincoln Park. It is also easier to find parking here. Well at best buy their pricing is higher compared to other store, but people love best buy because it's comfortable to shop here. The staff are very helpful, but I don't recommend people to buy their cell phone thru best buy, they are just not a good of a deal. more

I'm sure most people are familiar with Best Buy. It's your typical electronics store, but the best selling point about this place is it has a bit of everything - cameras, CDs, televisions, etc. The staff is always eager to help but I've found that they're always not that knowledgeable. But at least they're friendly. more

I used to really like Best Buy, but lately I am just sick of it. It's too corporate, too strict, too bureaucratic. There's a rule for everything. Yeah it's a huge store and they have a great selection of stuff, but the sales people (despite the fact that they're not on commission) aren't well trained and will tell you anything just to sell a product. Quite often it's too crowded in here, and the sales people bug you when you want to be left alone and are too busy or not to be found when you actually have a question. Plus the return policy sucks - don't even think about not getting a pink sticker on your return from Loss Prevention when you walk in the door or they will think you stole the piece of crap you're returning. You only have 30 days to make a return. Sorry, but I thought most companies were more flexible with that these days, ya know, like maybe they'd caught on to a thing called customer service. Yesterday I wanted to return some headphones that broke (3 of them broke in the last few months and I have no idea why) that I'd bought around Christmas. I still had the receipt. But noooo, it's been more than 30 days so no go. I think that's just crappy. Crappy merchandise, crappy service. I mean should you really have to buy a PRP (Product replacement plan) on headphones just to make sure they don't crap out on you? That's just ridiculous. more

The Best Buy on Elston is convenient for Bucktown and Lincoln Park residents. They have a parking lot which is very convenient and there are always spaces in it, unlike the on on Clybourn. The service at this location is not the best. I recently purchased an item online for in-store pick up. This transaction took nearly an hour and I was the second person in line. The manager behind the counter was inattentive and didn't seem to care about customer service at all. This Best Buy is great if you know what you want and don't require any additional service and if you're not in a hurry. more

After a very long walk, I was pleased to find their staff so helpful and friendly. I was greeted as I walked in the door, and I was almost immediently helped with my question. They were very knowledgable about all of their products and were very helpful; they answered every question I had, or told me exactly where I could go to find the answer. more
