We've always had a distribution centre where the online orders get shipped out of. Before we only had one in Ontario but now we have one in Richmond so all Vancouver people should get there orders much quicker now.

All the stuff I bought online from best buy was available in the store today when I went down. Still glad I did it in case it wasn't but I hope I don't have to wait too long to get them.

It's just your c/c making sure your card isn't being used when it shouldn't
i've had this happen to me a number of times

each time i ended up having to speak to an agent and they tell me to call my credit card company to get it sorted out

my credit card company says futureshop/bestbuy didn't attempt any action with my credit card not even a ping, so they have no clue why i need to call them and told me to call fs/bb back... i call fs/bb back and tell them what my CC said and then fs/bb puts my order through

seems more like some sort of bs fs/bb is pulling

there was no "fine print" on their radio ads

and their site was down due to the high amount of traffic.

whuuuut I returned an extra case fan some time ago (sealed, unopened, receipt in hand) and they charged me the 15% restocking... :9


Also btdubs I went down to W. 4th (Comor/P. Boarder/Boardroom) to find some boots and the deals were kinda meh. I don't remember exact prices other than the boots I was looking at: Celsius Cirrus trad lace $240, Vans Fargo Boa $290. The Celcius Cirrus Double Boas sell for that much in the states and online....

yeah it was fucking gay. i think they updated while i was out watching a movie and i didn't bother checking the site before i went to bed. even my friends who lined up at 2am didn't know there were laptops for sale. crazy ass deals though $1899-$2399 laptops sold for $499-$599. fuck that pissed me off too... HATE this years boxing day.

lol they jipped you then. as long as it's sealed, unopened and within 15 days it should always be a full refund. maybe you pissed off the sale rep.

Yup. The suit was already discounted but HR's had a extra $150 off before 1pm so it was a sweet deal.
