Most store employees are helpless. I am repeatedly told to go speak to another employee when asking a question, including being told to go back and forth between two employees. Upon realizing the store inventory was off (common issue NBD) the employee acted as if I was pulling teeth to place the order online and have the item shipped to store. 11 days later with no tracking or shipping updates I went back to Best Buy and was informed that even though I was charged the full amount for the item, it was never actually ordered. I was informed that the item would be pulled from another store to be delivered to my home same day, that sounded great. Later in the evening I received an email saying the item inventory at the other store was also off and I would need to choose a different pickup location or standard shipping, I replied I would accept the standard shipping to avoid going to another store and being told the inventory was off again. Today I received an email stating that with standard shipping I will be receiving the item 4/30/25 over 1 month after I was supposed to have picked up the item in store that was in stock. I could have purchased the item elsewhere same day without the hassle, Best Buy just happened to be more convenient. I will not be making this mistake again.
Best Buy should seek and train better store employee standards.

I was so nervous to get a laptop for school until I was greeted and taught by a young man named HAMMAD on what I needed ! He is by far one of the smartest people I ever have had the pleasure to speak to. He is a much needed asset to this establishment. Not only was HAMMAD professional and smart but was extremely helpful and kind! What a wonderful experience this was and if I could leave more stars for this wonderful young man then I would in a heart beat ! Thank you so much HAMMAD if you see this i appreciate you very much! You saved me from getting something I shouldn’t have !!
