Really frustrating experience at Best Buy. The employees were rude, dismissive, and didn’t seem to care that people had been waiting in line for hours. I came specifically for Pokémon booster bundles on a major release date and knew there were 48 in stock after using a stock checker that hasn’t ever been wrong (they also come in cases of 25), so it was obvious there was more product than what was put out. Despite that, staff refused to bring out the remaining stock and kept insisting what was on the shelf was all they had.
It honestly felt like the rest was being held back or backdoored which is unfair to customers who showed up early expecting a fair chance. Between the poor attitude and lack of transparency, this was a really bad experience and not somewhere I’d go to for my Pokemon releases again

I came in a Best buy to get a new phone I was blessed with having Brent as my sales associate he was very very knowledgeable and very patient as well he was able to help me find the perfect phone. 10 out of 10 highly recommend ask for Brent when you go in. Best buy you need to give this guy a raise and a promotion 😎😎💪
