The staff was helpful, but the price of the item is was looking for was well above that of competitors...

I drove an hour away to purchase a video card thinking that surely the only tech store within 50 miles of me would have a decent video card selection (it did not). I entered the store and walked past 4 employees hanging out at the entrance to the PC part section, only to find a barren video card cabinet with two measly 8gb 5060s, 2 last gen AMD cards, and a 5070. I couldn't see the prices due to the price tags laying at the bottom of the cabinet. The one tag that I could see was flickering on and off because of course they use broken electronic price tags. I've never seen a retail store seemingly begging me to shop online instead. Lesson learned; shop elsewhere for PC parts.
Edit: I have no interest in going elsewhere to supply formal feedback. I'd prefer it Best Buy's doors closed permanently. I'm only here to warn others to shop elsewhere.
