Frequently Asked Questions About Best Buy Merrillville
How do I check product availability at the Merrillville Best Buy?
BestBuy.com will have the latest product availability information. Check back frequently, as product availability may change. Statuses such as Sold Out or Check Stores may update throughout the season. Products displayed as Sold Out, In Store Only, or Check Stores cannot be ordered by phone. Call Center agents are not able to provide guidance on inventory levels.
How do I check my order status?
Visit the Order Status page and enter the order number (from your order confirmation email), plus the last name and phone number you used to place the order. If you have an account, you can also access your orders from your Account overview after you sign in.
My local Merrillville Best Buy store and BestBuy.com ran out of the item I want. Is there another way to get it?
Inventory is constantly updated in stores and on BestBuy.com, especially during the holiday season. Make sure to check back early, and often, in case of a restock.
I bought a gift that requires service/installation. When can I expect that to be scheduled?
We’ll always try our best to accommodate your needs when scheduling a service appointment and would be happy to reserve the most convenient, available appointment slot for you, but for time-sensitive services/installations we recommend that you schedule as far in advance as possible. For vehicle installations, you can view, schedule, check, change or reschedule appointments by visiting Geek Squad® Autotech Reservations. Please keep in mind that demand for appointments around the holidays is so high that appointment slots typically fill up quickly.
What are Best Buy Merrillville stores’ holiday hours?
To accommodate your schedule during the holiday rush, many Best Buy stores will be open for extended holiday hours. Some stores may have different hours where required by local ordinances or landlord regulations. Mall-based Best Buy store hours may vary based on mall hours. For the most up-to-date hours, please review store hours on the Merrillville Best Buy store web page located above. BestBuy.com is open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year and offers free around-the-clock chat support.

Cam was extremely helpful in assisting me find all of the items I was looking for this morning. He was extremely knowledgeable and friendly. Other staff should take notes from him as he is a model employee!

Horrible service yesterday dealing with Geek Squad manager Sharron M. from Geek Squad that thought it's manager's position to down talk a customer. When I asked for the store manager they sent another dept manager Nathan C. to "act" as if he were the store manager. When the actual store manager is Tim. I later confirmed that he in fact was not the store manager and that Tim was not available. issue was not solved even though it was confirmed defective from the geek squad rep. Manager training is definitely needed at the Merrillville, Indiana location for at minimum 3 of their managers. it's obvious when the employees themselves state that these managers don't know how to talk to customers and that this has been an ongoing issue with these managers. I now have to take my purchase of 3 additional 100" TVs to a different retailer.
