I purchased a Hyper X Cloud Flight Headset about 1 year ago, this was the 2nd time i've purchased this headset the first one stopped working after about 1 year as well so this time around I purchased the protection plan. Well, the same thing happened with the second headset and i brought it into the store today - come to fight out I was told misinformation and the headset would not be covered. DO NOT PURCHASE THE PROTECTION PLAN ITS A WASTE OF MONEY AND A TOTAL SCAM. Now i'm out an additional $200 as I purchased a different brand of headset. The lady at the front had the nerve to ask me if I wanted to buy the protection plan on this one also. Avoid this store at all costs.

Hi Alex,
Thanks for sharing this with us. We're concerned to hear your headset is having issues and that you were told it wasn't covered by the protection plan, which we understand would be frustrating.

Hard to get service even with lots of employees wandering around. High pressure sales from vendors

Store had plenty of employees on the floor to assist. Store did seem to have a lot of empty shelves and not stocked well. Definitely not the electronic giant it was back in the day but got the job done.
Terrible. Lots of workers in blue shirts just standing around behind desks. I just walked in with 10k cash ready to buy kicker comp subwoofer, amp and full install. Spent 10 minute standing in the car section, waiting for an associate that was helping a customer buying a printer….. I am not chasing down people to buy overpriced items, anyways. Do to poor customer service, I’ll go to another audio installation company since Best Buy is okay with blue shirts behind counters.
