Terrible service, I was looking to buy TV ,there is no one to be find in TV section. Talk to one employee he say there is only one person per section. They just lost sale and customers, I wait 45 minutes, never coming back again
On Wednesday, August 6th, around 3:30 PM, I went to this Best Buy location in Long Island City, Queens during my break to purchase an Apple MacBook. An employee assisted me but was extremely pushy about selling me insurance. I politely declined, at which point his demeanor became aggressive.
Shockingly, he then refused to sell me the MacBook and told me to “just buy it online.” I told him I would report the incident to corporate, and he began yelling in the store, claiming I was “threatening” him.
I have already filed a complaint with Best Buy corporate and have a case number. When I arrived, no one offered to help. I had to look for an employee myself. Later, Best Buy customer service confirmed to me that employees are not allowed to deny a sale simply because a customer refuses insurance.
This experience was unprofessional, unacceptable, and a complete waste of time. Avoid this location at all costs.

Reichel was such a great help, helped me find a great open box. Her customer service was amazing, had an amazing experience.
I tried to return an item that I never even got the chance to use, went to customer service and the manager said its been too many days past the return date so they can't take it back which I find horrible as far as service goes.
