Reason #84987561 Best Buy sucks!

Under pressure from state investigators, Best Buy is now confirming my reporting that its stores have a secret intranet site that has been used to block some consumers from getting cheaper prices advertised on BestBuy.com.
What is more troubling to me, and to some Best Buy customers, is that even when one informs a salesperson of the Internet price, customers have been shown the intranet site, which looks identical to the Internet site, but does not always show the lowest price.

Even the source, nobody likes to carry the long microphone cables, just the $40 dollar and up S-Video short! cables. I miss radio shack!
Can we take canada post and turn it into a radio shack II? Keep it/make it a crown corporation? The more the gov. makes, the less tax he takes? demand/supply, it works. Whoes with me?

Just like anything else..call up the airline and they never give you the cheapest airfare quote you have to find it yourself. The Electronics/Computer industry has become so cutthroat. Call Dell by telephone and guaranteed you will get 3 different prices on the same system depending on the salesperson or they will try to sell you something totally different then what you originally called for.
