Congratulations. Now the Brits will get to experience a boring selection of over priced generic merchandise combined with rude, unknowledgable clerks with huge guts and bad tattoos.

Not only that, you'll get higher prices and no Rewards Zone membership.

They will also pee in your Ovaltine when you're not looking.

You left out being treated as a potential criminal moments after handing them money.

Congratulations. Now the Brits will get to experience what it feels like to get angry and act strange over virtually nothing, and then come to this forum and tell 80% of a vague story.

I only go to two Best Buys in Phoenix/Chandler. I go there regularly. You walk in, pick out what you want, buy it and then leave. Over the past ten years, I've probably done 75-100 transactions. I've never had a weird experience there.

Maybe it has something to do with the geography/demographics in the area? Do you folks have a high concentration of socially akwards, confrontational retards in your area? Maybe it has more to do with your communities than anything else. I've never been to a Best Buy on 'that side of town'.
