Bait-and-switch pricing. Three confirmed orders, three cancellations, three price increases.
I ordered a monitor at $1,349. Received email confirmation. Best Buy cancelled, claiming “fraud.” No explanation, no opportunity to verify.
After cancellation, the price jumped to $1,499. I reordered—this time with a customer service rep on the phone who confirmed my order. Received confirmation. Cancelled again.
Price then jumped to $1,819. Ordered again, confirmed again, cancelled again.
Total price increase: $470 (35%). Every cancellation was followed by an immediate price hike. A human representative directly confirmed one of these orders, so this wasn’t just an automated system glitch.
I have confirmation emails, cancellation notices, and records of my customer service interactions. I’ve filed complaints with the BBB and state Attorney General.
If your order gets cancelled for “fraud” and the price conveniently increases afterward, you’re not alone.
Immediately greeted and directed to where I needed to go. An employee named Sonya understood what I wanted and found it fast. Overall great experience.
Been standing in the phone area without assistance for a good bit of time. May change depending on the if I get help
