I Hate The Best Buy Police

[Jscotty]

That is just plain fucked up. That guy should be suspended for shit like that.

I'd like to think that he made an honest mistake but then again, if I was his supervisor, I think I'd be very embarrassed by this.

why would they even sell those items in bulk is they are going to ask those kinds of questions?? i would have made such a scene it would have been rediculous.

Well thinking back on the whole situation, I wanted printable DVD's and they they were out of the 50 and 100 pack quantities but they had the "brand x" variety in the 10 pack. Even though there are only 10 DVD's in the package, it comes in a full sized container with a bunch of stuffing in it.

So in this guy probably added up in his mind that I was buying over 1000 DVD's. (not to justify his actions) And then being that the cases come in packs of 10, I always buy a few extras in case I break one during duplication or to replace the worn cases on my storebought DVD's. So when I came to the register, my cart was filled to the top.

I mean there are so many ways that I could have verbally attacked this guy but one thing that I learned is that when you were wronged in a situation like this, the more civil you are, the worse they will feel about their mistake. I told the manager that I was pissed off and that the cashier had no business asking me anything other than "plastic or paper" etc.. and I shared everything that I thought but I was civil. I probably could have pushed the situation harder but I was satisfied with his prompt apology.

I ued to buy car stereo shit and sell it on ebay. Made like 15% profit with my discount.

Same here, and audio video cables.. 80% discount on them, more than doubled my money through ebay and craigslist. Then they started asking me why I was buying so much, so I stopped.

You should have told them that you have a lot of stolen stereo stuff to hook up.
:p

Shoulda said "none of your fuckin business" as you proceeded to fill the trunk with the cables.

Your response was lame. You should have told him you filled up the hard drive with the child pron you made and decided you should probably try and make money by selling the DVDs of you going R.Kelly on some girl scouts to get money for better video equipment and a bed with tie-downs.

i have a warranty under them. I've brought my laptop back for a number of issues on multiple occasions. i have thousands of songs, a few movies and porns, and noone's ever said shit to me

Well, they cant prove you dont have permission to have that.

Why didn't you just tell the dude that you were in charge of making video copies of a friend's wedding? What's so bad about that? It would have shut him right up.

But no, you have to turn everything into a big god damn ordeal and then bitch about it on r3v.

Get a life.

The point is it was none of the guy's business. I guess people like you just bend over all the time.

How about:

1) What the fuck do you care.
2) OK mr supervisor, suspend him or I don't buy this shit, will not buy again here, and tell all my friends that privacy is not respected by this store and it's employees.
3) mr supervisor, I will also tell about this in all the internet forums I can.

BTW, I would have acted the same way you did, but I really would like to see the supervisor's face if you said all those things to him.

You sound like a non-confrontational waffleswaffleswaffleswaffleswaffles.

be very careful scotty. watch everyone around you and be leary of anyone tailing you. its likely the best buy employee will be on your ass for a few weeks collecting data to get you fired, evicted from your trailer and booted out of school
