I was looking for a TV to replace my old one that broke. The people in sales back there weren't very helpful they were okay but not very good. They showed me a TV in the open box area that was discounted. Since I'm on disability and my wife is retired and we are raising are three grandchildren we went with the open box it was cheaper and they assured us let the TV have been gone through and that everything was in the box. I picked up the TV November 1. Sunday morning brought the TV home and set it up and found out it had the wrong cord. 25 minutes with Best buy customer service only to find out that it's in another country. Grab the cord with the TV and went back to the store to explain them what happened and get a new cord. They gave me a new cord free but I had to buy a remote. Plug the TV in and not one of the three remotes would connect to the TV. I went through Hisense troubleshooting troubleshooting places to try and figure out what's wrong. After spending all day Sunday trying to get the TV set up. I finally took it back apart and returned it this morning November 2nd Monday morning. I talked to the person in charge he didn't say he was a manager or assistant manager. Took my receipts went to the computer and issued me return receipts. Nothing for my time nothing for his people lying to me nothing for the fuel trips back and forth to his store. Nothing but a refund and I'm sorry. Oh he did ask if I wanted to buy another TV 😂 I told him I would never buy from Best buy again and I will make sure that others know what I went through. I have been a Best buy customer for years off and on it shouldn't be named Best buy anymore it should be more like Worst buy, buyer beware of the store

Hello,
Thank you for sharing your experience. We're sorry to hear about the issues you encountered with your open-box TV purchase and the frustration caused by the missing components, setup difficulties, and multiple trips to the store. This is most certainly not the level of service we aim to provide.

Other than having to wait for a sales rep, every time I have gone into the store, the service has been excellent. I had to repurchase a wall mount for my 75” TV, as I just moved into the area. I then purchased a new 55” TV, and followed up with a wall mount for that TV. Each time the sales rep was very helpful.
Colin, was incredible to work with!! He was so patient with me, showing me how to work my first Apple Watch. (which I was real nervous to buys because I didn’t think I could learn to use it!!) I had lots of questions and he helped me with every one of them!! I would really recommend Colin for future clients. He’s awesome!
