Elite Plus Members should get some sort of incentive towards the TotalTech Membership. Whether it's a complementary 6 months to a year or a discount towards it. Spending the large sum of money every year to hit Elite Plus for points banking and 2 day shipping gets trounced by the 200/yr membership that the TotalTech Membership offers and you also get the benefits of special access to items in stock. As an ex employee and a frequent customer, I feel that the discrepancies between the two are too large to ignore. I can spend less but have more. Whereas I spend more and someone that wants to can just skip the line and get things before me plus extra warranty services.

The ability to load a gift card on to your account and use them the same way we use our rewards. This also reduces the possibility of losing a card. Amazon does and i think best buy should follow suit.

When people purchase digital delivery for games the codes should be sent out when physical games are sent out, or at least 2 days before scheduled release.

 

Part of the source of the issue is the presence of physical media or extras and the system will not allow their release until release day.

 

Sending out codes would not violate sales with the developer as the game would not be playable or eligible for download until the game client releases it.

 

More and more games are allowing pre-install of games that will not unlock until they are able to.

 

Example: Elden Ring has a release date of Friday, February 25th for consol. PC, PlayStation and Xbox owners were able to install the game on Tuesday.

 

PC players have the ability from the developer to start playing the game on Thursday, February 24th at 5 PM Central Time, or 4 PM Eastern Time etc.

 

I realize game sales are a very small percent of Best Buys bottom line. But if they don’t take steps to be like the other options for purchase, that percent is going to get smaller and smaller.

 

Why cant I load my gift cards into my account so that I always have a balance to use vs. having to ensure that I have the cards with me when I travel.  You are missing out on HUGE opportunity.  I just used Amazon instead of Best Buy for this very reason.  I was able to go right to my balance without having th physical card.  GET INTO THIS CENTURY PLEASE!!  IT IS A REAL TURN OFF TO DO BUSINESS WITH YOUR STORE.

I would like to propose that Best Buy consider providing military veterans a modest discount on Veterans day each year. I am aware that you keep your pricing low to provide the best value for the money. However many retailers provide military discounts all year long. Some even double that discount on veterans day. As a veteran living on a modest pension along with social security, I have to pinch pennies and look for real deals. If there were a modest discount offered once a year, I might be able to splurge on a new TV or computer.

 

I appreciate your time and consideration of this suggestion.

 

Sincerely,

My idea is that someone should fix this link that has been broken for a really really really really long time

 

I like what you did here on the Black Friday in July sale promo on the main page. Any chance extending this color design to the whole site? Sometimes I like to look at Best Buy late at night just to see the latest deals and don't neccesarily like bright colors late in the night. Youtube respects the color scheme on my PC (Dark) and Facebook has a dark mode as well.

 

Hi! It would be really great if we could select a preferred/default store so we don't have to change it every time we log in. (I know that is supposed to be a feature, but it doesn't work. I select a preferred store, and it immediately reverts back to one about 30 miles away.) 

Thanks!

At the cost of annoying some, I'd like to see something implemented into the website where on certain items, say the SNES classic, you have to input a captcha code, or have a code sent to your phone to verify that it is indeed you who want to purchase it. That way you thwart automated bots and give those who really want the item a fair chance to do so. 

 

Although I already have the SNES Classic, I am open to feedback about this from other fellow shoppers and Best Buy staff. 

Multiple times now, I have purchased an item online, both for shipping and for in-store pickup. Every time, a large sticker is placed on the box. They are not easily removable and cannot be removed cleanly. On multiple occasions, these were gifts that had to be given with a big ugly sticker on it, or with the paper/adhesive left behind from trying to remove the big ugly sticker.

I’d this sticker is necessary, I’d like to suggest that your warehouses and stores be required to use removable adhesive. Thanks!

1. Add a link to all reviews submitted under an account. Link the reviews to the account rather than an unlinked handle.

2. Allow reviewers to update a previously submitted review.

Best Buy has Express Kiosks at a number of airports.  3 in my local airport.

 

What I would like to see incorporated into the Best Buy web site or as its own site is something dedicated to the Kiosks. 

 

Showing their locations and what individual machines carry.  Not necessary a guarantee of an item being in stock but the fact that this or that machine carries this item.

 

Now it would also be great if it could be included in the app.

 

Example. I was traveling to a different city for a business conference. I needed a jump drive.  I picked on up at the Best Buy Kiosk in Minneapolis Airport.  

 

What would be slick if if your in that situation and you can pre-purchase the item from your phone and then pick it up at the kiosk on your way through the airport. 

 

I'd like an "alert me" link under sold-out items that we can click that will pop up options to be e-mailed, texted, or both when the item becomes available.  

 

Also, within that message have a link to the product saying something like, "Buy it now."

Apologies if this has been suggested already.

 

I couldn't find an easy place to submit a compliment on my interaction with a sales rep. and I saw someone say on a forum that it's expected that that kind of thing should go onto a forum. I argue that this isn't good enough because, as other people have noticed, links to the forums aren't near the top of the website and you actually have to do a bit of looking around to find them. I have little expectation that managers at various levels ever see positive comments on their employees there. Compliments to your sales people and others who work at helping customers should really be a lot more visible than that.

 

I'm resorting to trying to find a corporate headquarters address and then writing a paper letter because I don't want to just give up or send my compliments into the ether where no one will see them.

 

Thanks, Folks!

As simple as the title says. Add more games to the $10 promo. Also, GCU members should get more than regular members. Either give GCU members $15 and non GCU members $10 or keep the amount for GCU at $10 and reduce the non GCU to $5. GCU seriosuly needs more value to be a viable service. Since the mag was discontinued, the only benefit is 20% off games, which if u buy most games at release, you get screwed when the price inevitably goes down within 45 days because you can't get 20% off of the price match so you would have literally been better off buying at full price as non GCU member and then price matched the lower price. You would have saved $100 on GCU, still gotten the price match and $10 reward certificate for preordering, gotten more rewards points since the original price would have been higher and gotten more towards your overall limit of keeping your Elite status. Having GCU actually costs me money in the long run. Please people, vote for this idea. We need this to change!!! I'm close to going to Amazon for all my games and movies which is the only things I buy at Best Buy anymore since they have made so many negative changes in the past couple years.

Put a huge, gigantic banner over the TV department stating free delivery for any TV over 50". With a disclaimer that any TV's self delivered will not be returnable for physical damage"

Might help reduce the multiple posts complaning about broken screens when they got.home.

With the increase to $60 a year normally($120 for 2 with NO discount, really?), Best Buy should be focused on trying to attract new customers to pony up the cash for a subscription. But when regular consumers can pay only $15 for a year at Gamestop and still get their physical magazine, 10% off on pre-owned and a 10% bump on trade-ins it seems like less and less of a good value to grab the GCU sub at Best Buy.

 

Sure. You have the 20% off new games and you do have the welcome packets(when/IF they get sent out on time), but even those have been nerfed. Gone is the B2G1 coupon on NEW games that would stack with Black Friday pricing, replaced by......nothing. Even the 20% discount wasn't working initially on Black Friday with sale prices, which was disappointing and infuriating, since we paid for that discount in the revamped program.

 

Now with @Gamer going away with this month's issue, we're reliant on the bi weekly or so coupons that EVERY Gamer's Club member gets and within the last couple of weeks those have been reduced down from three coupons to two the last couple of cycles. 

 

So what's left? We do get the 10% on game trade-ins still. But that's only IF we constantly remind the employees we're GCU and to click the little button to check it off to give us the bonus. Not to mention the fact that the trade values as of late make Gamestop's look generous by comparison and the lack of trade promotions besides the requisite 50/100% ones and the infrequency of them make wanting to trade at BB just not worth it anymore.

 

As I said at the beginning of this, you want to add features to attract new customers and retain current ones, not take them away while jacking up the price to 4x what a program cost prior. 

 

Hopefully you guys can find a way to bring back @Gamer and the sometimes awesome coupons(not the last couple of months sadly) as I feel that GCU needs all the help it can get to attract new customers.

I don't like how we have to retype our gift card number plus pin each time we want to use our gift cards for online purchases. Can you guys make a feature that will allow us to add our gift card balance like my best buy certificates automatically to our online purchases at checkout?

Points need to be assigned for purchase made using Best Buy gift card, not for buying the gift card, since best buy gift card can be purchased from other stores or website other than best buy.
