venerdinero Posted November 22, 2005 Posted November 22, 2005 Here you'll feel better, or maybe still works better?:) The "Ray Lewis" dance that someone referenced is the pre home game ritual of the Baltimore Ravens when they go into a loud demonstrative testosterone induced dance while Ray screams "We must protect this HOUSE!!" (meaning protect their home field which the visitors are attacking) (you may have seen or heard it in a commercial for underarmor) "Barry & Jill" are marketing profiles designed by BB. These "angel" profiles are the allegedly the wealthy and busy people who want the top electronics (read HIGH MARGIN ITEMS) and don't worry so much about the price. These are the people they hope to market their new psa (personal shopping assistant program) towards. As you may have noticed in other threads, some BB will be letting people cut the lines to meet with a psa who will already have their doorbuster items reserved and safe. (This is a YMMV situation) The "devil customers" is one of their terms and profiles for those who cherry pick the loss leaders, shop sales, price match and wisely utilize intelligent shopping strategies (most of us on here). They also lump in with us those who rip off BB because BB LETS people break BB's own rules. IF BB lets a customer return an item with the bar code or proof of purchase cut off, against their own policies, then they almost deserve to get ripped off. Give them store credit for the amount of the item minus the rebate (which I think they MAY finally be doing this year.)
saturnboy01 Posted November 22, 2005 Posted November 22, 2005 Went by local BB tonite (Attn: Forum Customers (Selma, Schertz, Universal City, Live Oak))!!!!

saturnboy01 Posted November 22, 2005 Posted November 22, 2005 So no Kodak C360 out? I only checked out the computers/laptops (because that is all I am interested in at BB).
VaderGCP Posted November 22, 2005 Author Posted November 22, 2005 One box for both the tower and monitor? That's going to be one heavy, bulky, annoying box to haul around. Unless they have boxes where theyre going to "package" them from now til then I doubt theyll just give us one box with everything. Like I said, my BB had a Tower and the Monitor in seperate boxes. Theyre both pretty big.
kramer13 Posted November 22, 2005 Posted November 22, 2005 So no Kodak C360 out?The salesman showed me the C360 box. They had two or three down in the cabinet. Hope they get more than that.

As I stated I was talking with managment at my local BB and they do not even have this item in stock at my BB its a "one day" thing only and it will be packaged together (Tower/Monitor).
VaderGCP Posted November 23, 2005 Author Posted November 23, 2005 My local Best Buy said NO PRICEMATCHING AT ALL. I was letdown. Theyre going to lose lots of DVD sales like that to WalMart and Circuit City.
