I drove 45 minutes each way to pick up a Hisense Fire TV listed as Open-Box EXCELLENT. What I got was clearly not Excellent condition:
- No original box (just a generic Best Buy box held together with zip ties)
- No manual
- Two rear cover caps missing
- The wrong remote: a Hisense Google TV remote for a different model, while my TV is a Fire TV. It doesn't even work with the TV.
- Light scuffs on the screen, visible when the TV is off and you look at an angle
Each of these is minor on its own. Together, this is "Good" condition at best, and the wrong remote makes me wonder whether the unit was checked at all before it was graded. I contacted Best Buy support, and all they told me was to come back to the store, which means another 1.5-hour round trip.
Please inspect and grade open-box items accurately. People choose Excellent and pay more for it because they trust that grade.

Hello, Andrii,
Not only can we understand the frustration that would be associated with a mismatch on the condition of your open box unit, but also the fact that you had to drive 45 minutes each direction.

Bambu Lab: Fantastic Printers, Terrible Support. You’re on Your Own!
Bambu Lab makes absolutely brilliant 3D printers. They are incredible machines for creative people, and using one can be a genuinely amazing experience.
Until something goes wrong.
Then your wonderful 3D printer becomes your personal nightmare.
Forget about getting real help from Bambu Lab technical support. In my experience, their support system seems designed to keep customers as far away from actual technical assistance as possible. You can spend hours trying to solve a problem that should never have existed in the first place.
Your best hope? Artificial intelligence. Yes, AI may become your only reliable technical assistant. Unfortunately, even AI cannot fix everything.
I spent days fighting with Bambu Studio after a software upgrade turned a perfectly functioning setup into a frustrating mess. Even reinstalling an older version failed to resolve the problem.
And here’s my advice: NEVER upgrade a working version of Bambu Studio unless you are prepared to spend your free time troubleshooting it.
Bambu Lab knows how to build impressive machines. Apparently, providing dependable software updates and accessible customer support is a different story.
A fantastic product is worth very little when its manufacturer leaves you alone the moment something goes wrong.
Order online because it’s convenient, so you can pick it up in the store, right? wrong. You go down there and they can’t even process your order, but yet they’ll take your money $3000, and they can’t even, and you can’t even get a hold of them online. Worst experience ever. Customer support is horrible.

Alex from the Squad made it a reason I will continue to shop here. I bought a computer three months ago from here. Started have issues with it, and brought it to Alex. He tried everything he could to help me figure out what was wrong with my computer. After spending almost an hour, we couldn't come to a conclusion, but he helped push things through and help change some settings. After all was done he said he couldn't charge me for something he was not sure if it was fixed. That right there is customer service. Even if I had to pay something, no big deal. The fact he took time out of his day to help and not ask for anything in return is something I thought was lost, but Alex was sure to show that there is still humanity in this world. Thanks Alex
