No it doesn't show how weak the sales have got but instead how much smarter people have got. The sales have been weak for years now but it's just people have been dumb all these years until now people final realize.

Too early for April Fools joke. That's bull shit.

dipt -- 30% off almost everything.
urban outfitters -- vans were $15 only, pretty much half off everything on the sale rack, levi's are $39.
alife -- 3 for $100 shoes/crewneck/zipups, 3 for $50 tees, $20 hats.
goodfoot -- $20 hats, shoes $40~$80, $15 tees

interesting.

i tried calling them, but it was an automated telephone system and i just need to punch in my order number and they "verified" it.

their phone numbers are:
BB: 1-866-514-1433
FS: 1-866-514-1431

and here is what they sent me.... :mad:

:eek:

for FS, i bought about $700 worth of stuff.
for BB, i only bought $360 worth of stuff.

i ordered from them 2 years ago for my $499 desktop, they didn't do this to me... anyone else?

+1 around $20 or under please :)

yeah it's the C/C company that did that -- it's happened to me before about 6 months ago or something. I ended up just cancelling my order and going in store to get it later, but not before Mastercard phoned me and asked if i had made any large purchases recently at Bestbuy.

It's just your c/c making sure your card isn't being used when it shouldn't :)

1-800-663-2275, speak to an agent.

yup. i got a call from my CC company christmas morning already.

awellz, i will wait and see. i need my ps3 bundle from BB.. grrrrrr

thanks guys.

i ended up calling the BB service line and got through to a human rep. the FS one is all automated and redirect me to the same place as before.

anyways, i verified with the BB service rep and he helped me checked both my BB order AND FS order. i guess they use the same computer system.

so, if anyone has problems, just call 1-866-2378-289

pretty good deals at Alife..off everything?
lots of sizes?..maybe i should drop by tomorrow

I was surprised, I got a email from Bestbuy already and said they shipped my item out today on a Saturday.

They have email address to if anyone needs.

Bestbuy/Futureshop has a warehouse solely for online orders now. So stock shouldn't be an issue if you ordered it through online.

anyone go to NCIX richmond recently? interested in the line up size before stepping a foot with my car inside their c-lai infested parkade.

What?! 3 games for $5?!?!?! :cry:

still no HD 555s :(

Post above mine mentioned his shipment going out on a Saturday, really unusual IMO since last time I ordered through them, it got shipped out on a Monday.

Stock sure isn't an issue, but order volume sure would be.
