Frequently Asked Questions About Best Buy San Marcos
How do I check product availability at the San Marcos 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 San Marcos 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 San Marcos 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 San Marcos 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.

If Best buy is wondering why they're going out of business let me help. Your target audience is impulse buying. That's me. Ready to impulse buy. So when I call your number to see if you have something in stock and I get some garbage AI that can't understand literally anything. Then I get transferred to customer support that is now outsourced in India who also cannot understand anything you have now taken your target audience, the impulse buyer and made me willing to wait for amazon. Which is now what I'm doing.

Hello, Branden,
Thank you for your review. It can be frustrating when you don't get the information you need over the phone. Best Buy does have a way to check stock of the item you're looking for on our website. You'd need to select the location of the store that you'd like to shop at and make that your preferred store. Then search for your item. You can filter the results by "ready in 1 hour." Those are the items that are in store and currently available for purchase.
