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

My local Iowa City 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 Iowa City 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 Iowa City 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.

Horrible customer service. Went to get a new radio for my car and waited around for like 15 minutes then had someone “call” someone to get it down from the shelf. Waited another 15 minutes for no one to come over. Finally just grabbed the ladder and got it myself. I should not have to do their job for them. Noticed immediately that 2 employees were speed walking to me when they noticed that I was getting it myself but once I was off the ladder they stopped. The cashier was rude as heck and just making conversation asking if he had a rough day he just glares at me. Definitely not shopping this store ever again.

I needed help and an employee told me they were off at five and walked away. I then proceeded to get budged in front of while I was looking for a computer by an employee who was helping another customer no excuse me no I’m sorry. No wait for us to be done just completely went right in front of where we were looking terrible service.
