Five things you shouldn’t buy at Best Buy
Best Buy is a very popular retailer where you can find some really great deals on many items. However, this does not mean that any purchase in this store is automatically profitable.
There are some products that you should not buy from this network because of the very high prices - despite the fact that they do not have the best price guarantee that many other products have.
The list of things that are not worth buying at Best Buy, has collected edition CheatSheet.
Technical Accessories
In this network, you can purchase a TV or computer at a very competitive price, however, it is better to refuse to purchase cables and other technical accessories that you can offer with them.
Savings experts say that the prices of expensive goods in the store are low, because they understand that the buyer will compare them with the offers of other networks, including online, but the surcharge for ancillary goods can be made more because hardly anyone will deal with the comparison of their value.
For example, a 10-foot HDMI cable can be purchased online for $3,99, while the cheapest alternative at Best Buy is $39,99.
Gift cards
If you intend to buy 1 or 2 cards, then don't bother - you can buy them at Best Buy. But if you're interested in buying in bulk, it's best to use sites like Cardpool or Raise, where people resell gift cards they don't need. Card prices on these sites are 3-10% lower than the card's face value.
Apple Products Used
Many Apple fans prefer to buy devices that have already been in use, because the new products of the company are quite expensive. In this case, experts advise you not to buy them at Best Buy or at any other store, except Apple’s authorized sales outlets, since a new product may have defects and breakdowns that the retailer would prefer to just hide, and in Apple stores the buyer will be given a guarantee and a certain period of free service.
Extended Warranties
Acquisition of an extended warranty in the overwhelming majority of cases is throwing money down the drain. The basic warranty covers all possible types of damage, so its extended version will most likely never come in handy.
If you can not sleep peacefully without an additional guarantee, it makes sense to purchase a package of services of an independent service. SquareTradeWhich can be more useful in case of breakage.
Snacks and any other goods near the cashier
Many have already realized that the goods near the checkout are a trap, and at an inflated price. It is not profitable to buy them even in grocery supermarkets, let alone in a store specializing in technology.
They are designed for the weak customers who feel relaxed after saving money on purchasing a new TV or computer, and are ready to spend a little on something tasty - and it’s right there, near the checkout.
