I truly enjoy and appreciate Best Buy for what it is... Our lone standing electronics exclusive store in the region. They offer comparable deals and price matching. Overall, your mileage will vary on the site you're visiting. Some are smaller community stores, reflecting dated signage and looks, while others are seemingly regional hubs, much larger, and with increased stock selection. The personnel hasn't changed much in the last 15 years I've been shopping there. I appreciate seeing old faces who've stuck around and climbed the proverbial ladder. You can tell training isn't what it used to be, or least there's somewhat of a lack of pride in the work being done. I worked for Best Buy from 2007-2009 while in college, and thoroughly enjoyed it. We competed amongst departments and truly worked on our sales technique... Not to oversell, but to get to know someone and what they really wanted or needed. We were always the most knowledgeable. Today's staff is far from that. The college kids in the home theater department barely seem to know the difference in model variations and lack the thoroughness that once existed. But times have changed, the internet is now prevalent. Overall a great store, if somewhat lacking in personality. ~Atom
