[QUOTE="Cochese, post: 106438, member: 12249"] Opinions of a store can change by the day, or by the deal. I had an unfavorable opinion of Best Buy until I got in on two deals. The first was a clearance Touchpad. But it was the second deal that made a huge change in what I think of them. They had a Logitech Harmony remote on sale for $49.99 from $149.99. I bought mine at $149.99, figuring I would get them to honor the price afterward. They initially refused to, but eventually decided to meet me halfway at around $107 after taxes. Not what I wanted, but better than the original price. A week later they honored the original price by refunding me $100. So I got a $150 remote for $7. Now, that still doesn't make up for them selling stuff for huge markups that I can find elsewhere, but by them doing me a solid and then some, I'll shop there for anything that's around the same price as I can find elsewhere. It's easy to get enraged over something we feel entitled to, but we often don't do the opposite when it's warranted. [/QUOTE]
