Best Buy - FULL OF IDIOTS /mostly
I was in BB buying some Wii stuff (classic controller, memory card, game cube controller, GC memory card) and I noticed they only had 1 360 core, no Wii, No PSP, no PS3s so I find the guy in the section and ask.. so when you getting in some Wiis?
Moron - no idea.. March I think..
Me - March? doubt it, check please
Moron - no its March
Me - So what about PS3
Moron - March
Me - Ill find a manager and ask
Moron - Fine
so I find el, moron manager
Me - So when will you get some PS3s?
Moron Manager - Not until summer, Sony isnt producing them in large quantities anymore.
Me - 360 fan huh
Moron Manger - I dont play games
And people wonder why I prefer to buy online... but at least I still know the gene pool is getting its mouth breather supply of DNA

I agree with you. I've always been pretty much a dumbass but when I speak to some of these people in these chain stores, I keep getting smarter and smarter.
Or distributors are saying March as well. Now, it may be before then, but they won't say they'll have stable shipment until March.\r

For now, we hope just to get a call from them saying our allotment of 24 has arrived. No call... put in the order in November...
Kotaku got a leak from a BestBuy employee that said each store will be getting at least 15 Wii's for sale on Sunday. If you really want one that may be the way to go. As for the PS3, I've seen one or two at my local Wal-Mart and Sam's Club, just sitting around.
I've only met one person in my life at a Best Buy that both knew what was going on and was willing to do a little bit of legwork to help me out.\r

A couple Sundays ago, I went to a BB because they had Fight Night Round 3 for $29 in their Sunday ad. I can't find any, so I ask a blue shirt. \"Did you try looking under F?\" he asks.\r

I felt like saying, \"Do I look like a retard? Do I look like I wipe my ass with a rake? Of course I looked under F!\"
