Cannot connect to the store. Their obnoxious AI won't connect me to the store and their obnoxious agents won't connect me to the store. I live 100 miles away and need to verify they can fix my device before driving all that way. If this is how Best Buy is going to behave I'll take my business elsewhere.

Went in to get a micro sd card for my 3ds and I was approached by Jesse who decided to try and convince me that the 128GB card would not work. I already did the research and knew what I wanted to buy, but Jessie told me that it wouldn’t work, that I couldn’t reformat the card, and was even wrong about the the new nintendo 3ds xl taking a micro sd card (he said it took a regular one). He then googled on his phone and saw that it was indeed a microsd card that worked for my 3ds but didn’t seem to admit that he was wrong and continued saying things that were untrue. I bought the 128GB card anyways and it worked great for what I needed. Clearly didn’t know what he was talking about completely while also being condescending, aggressive, and rude.
On the bright side I was looking for frame TV’s in home theatre and Josh was a great help. He helped us with pricing and showed us the Hisense frame tv. So that improved my visit by a lot.
They will lie to you about product warranties saying it's an easy process and then you don't end up getting your stuff back for at least a month. DO NOT PURCHASE PRODUCT WARRANTIES.
