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

At the laptop section sales people are part of the fixture. Heavy to move. 2 behind the desk. No other client the me. No service and that's the best season. College start day.

Best Buy refuses to honor protection plans that are active when you drop off your device if the service technician procrastinates with diagnosis. This is contrary to their own Plan Terms and conditions which state "the laptop is covered by Best Buy Protection for up to 24 months if your membership remains active for that entire period." The plan cost $179 per year ($358 for 2 years). I sent my device for repair 9 days before the end of the 24 month eligibility period. The technician diagnosed the issue on day 10 then refused to repair it under the plan because it had become inactive. After days of back and forth with customer service, Best Buy refused to repair the device under the protection plan and insisted that I must pay 2.5 times the value of the device if I wanted them to repair it. This a is a complete scam. They are a very large corporation cheating customers to improve their bottom line.
