Normally this place is great with staffing, pickups, and being helpful, of which, I would normally give 5 stars. However I'm leaving 2 stars due to the interaction that I had today, and the completely inability to email/contact Best Buy via email, about this situation, which all companies should have available without a maze of links.
The interaction today: I walked in with my partner to do an easy pickup. We have had plenty before and it's usually nothing to note, since it usually goes so smoothly. However today was baffling. Upon entering I was greeted by the main security person, James. He asked if he could help with anything, and I said a usual "hey how are you" then explained I was just looking for pickups. He informed me that was currently his department and so I readied my barcode.
James then had the audacity to say something so backwards,"You're too positive - this must be your favorite holiday" then turned to may partner to say,"I feel bad for you". I think this was meant as a joke, but I see no humor is mocking someone's normal plesant greeting as too much?
I guess the takeaway here is that if you go into this Best Buy, be rude and unpleasant to James, and wish him a miserable day, since that is his preference.
Ironically, he wished us Happy Holidays as we left - at least be consistent, James.

Andre was amazing!
We came in on a super stressful day after running around trying to find multiple pieces for a camera, and Andre instantly brought us peace. He was light-hearted, made jokes, and had us laughing the whole time. He helped us find exactly what we needed and turned our stressful day into a great experience.
Highly recommend asking for Andre—he’s the best!
