HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE!!
I purchased an "Open Box' Laptop online. Laptop was listed in Excellent condition, and CLEARLY SAYS
* Works and looks like new. Restored to factory settings.
* Includes all original parts, packaging and accessories (or suitable replacement).
Once I received my laptop, it was missing the charger. I contacted customer support, and they told me to take my laptop into the nearest Best Buy, and that they would provide me with a charger.
I went to the Beaumont location, where both a store employee, and the manager would not provide me with a charger as I was told. The manager said that I didn't purchase this laptop directly from their store, that they wont assist me.
I purchased this laptop ONLINE, from BEST BUY. All Best Buys are tied together, as none of them are privately owned. I have purchased items online, and had to return them for a refund in the past with no issues. This manager clearly needs to do better, but after this issue...I am done shopping at Best Buy.
I also manage a large health care facility in Beaumont, where we provide our employees with new laptops that we would purchase from Best Buy.....but going forward we will take our business elsewhere.
