BEWARE OF PRE ORDER BONUSES ON GAMES HERE!!!
I went to go get my pre order. I was super excited to play the new pokemon game while I will be out on surgery. I went to the store before they opened at 9am to make sure I got the pre order bonuses. My boyfriend placed the pre order as soon as pre orders were available. Release was this morning. Not many people were waiting in line. Guy unlocks the door at 9 AM and says how they don’t have the Pokémon cards for the pre-order. I was fine with that because I was only there for the mouse pad mat for my gaming computer. I was the 3rd person in line for my pre order. Keep in mind I was on the phone with my boyfriend because I was concerned they were going to scam me out of the pre order bonus. As for those who don’t know, it’s a first come first service. I brought my ID and my boyfriend’s ID just incase because he was the one who placed the order. The employee was shuffling around the orders which was odd since they just opened. Not sure what he was trying to accomplish there. The younger dude with curly hair told me that it had to be placed with the order. We never heard of such thing before with BEST BUY! The guy told me the bar code does NOT include the bonus. I was bullshit but it seemed out of my control. I felt mistreated by the guy. We called customer service and we were told different information. I feel as if I were misguided and mistreated as I woke up early today expecting my pre order bonus
BUYER BEWARE OF THIS MATTER! I am positive the dude just wanted to keep the bonus for himself. If you are expecting a pre order bonus I suggest calling customer service and don’t leave the store.
Edit: I was talking with someone in target today, and they were told they were scammed by them before so he was in target picking up his pre order.

Came in to kill some time before work. The staff gave me valuable info about televisions and I ended up buying one 🤦🏾♂️Thanks Bestbuy.
didn't have what I wanted
I just made my second purchase at Best Buy in Danvers with Fernando C. He is always making the sales process easy and smooth! He makes smart questions always trying to understand our needs. If you are at North Shore area and need to buy anything from Best Buy, ask for Fernando C, he is the guy! Me and my family really recommend him
