Worst Buy
Cutriss writes "Steve Lynch of Hypothermia has been running a consumer awareness page following of an Internet pricing disagreement between Best Buy and over 2000 angry customers, where Best Buy refused to honor a web-only sale price of a GeForce4 Ti 4600 for $129.99, at a "Special pre-order price". The situation has escalated further - Rod Hill, Store Manager for Best Buy #513 in Tucker/Dekalb County, GA, had a customer arrested on Friday of last week, citing Fraud and Criminal Trespassing. Hill informed police that Abraham Cherian, an Indian American, was trying to rip off the store, the same store that had conceded to give another customer his video card as requested 10 days earlier. Best Buy is now apparently red-flagging inquiring troublemak^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^Hcustomers who attempt to obtain their purchased cards from Best Buy locations." FWIW, if the description of what happened is accurate, Best Buy has entered into a binding contract to sell the cards at the advertised price, and if they don't want to honor it, the people affected should take them to court (or contact their local Attorney General's office, which is what they appear to be doing). It's Best Buy's obligation to make sure their prices are accurate.
michael informed Slashdot that Cutriss, insert a pointless racial segue here, was trying to submit a story, the same story that ^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H ^H^H^H^H
intellectual property law is philosophically incoherent. it is your moral duty to ignore it or sabotage it
Sears has always had better customer service and warrantys than just about every place. Especially on their 'Craftsman' line of products. Lifetime warrantys, wheeeeeee...
What?
If you are cherokee can you say "Dawes Act"? Your people are due millions, possibly a billion plus and there are legal battles going on right now over this.
;o) .
Native Americans were suppose to be receiving royalties for land for many years and did not receive a dime. And it all relates back to what happend 500 years ago.
Don't beleive me? Check out this page and see on the lower right side of the page where a caption says "LONG OVERDUE? Will Uncle Sam pay billions to Native Americans", you can see the video for yourself.
Seems that the government would have loved for you to get over this
They can afford some bad press for nearly half a million dollars.
/. readers have seen this site? How many others? Half a million, maybe? I'm sure Best Buy is willing to pay a dollar per to make us like them again. Unfortunately, they won't get that chance. Lesson: don't piss off your customers just because you made a mistake.
Not quite. According to their financials, they're a US$5BIL company. Half a million, that they probably spend on their company Christmas party. On the other hand, how many
If you fall off a building, go real limp, because maybe you'll look like a dummy and people will be like hey, free dummy
It's more cultural sensitivity than politically correctness. United Statesians tend to forget the rest of the world exists, and most of it did so long before the United States. It is important to recognize cultural differences and to respect them.
I consider myself a citizen of the United States of America. I have ancestors from Europe, but I am not a 'European-American' anymore than anyone is an Indian-American or African-American. I am as American as a Canadian and Mexican and Brazilian.
Besides, we're all human in the end, (unless we're non-human animals). My point is that labels such as these are pointless and only lead to more bigotry and hatred as they tend to create divides. Yes it is important to recognize where you came from and your ancestors, but it is more important to realize that your ancestors, where they lived, and their ancestors are NOT what defines you. You are what defines you. Ethnical classifications are becoming more and more moot anyway, due to extensive interbreeding, etc. I for one, wish that the need to even keep track of ethnicity on any form would be done away with all together.

Goatsex goatsex GOATSEX Goat Sex animal sex bestiality
Of all the animal sex in the world, the one that suffers the most abuse from modern sexual habits is the large barnyard, otherwise known as the animalsex Our animals were intended by nature to function as a smoothly flowing sex systems, in order to promptly flush digestive wastes from the body.
The large barnyard is one of the four main elimination systems of the world. In Chinese medicine all the internal sex are paired. The large barnyard is paired with the zoo. Your puppy (dog/horse) is made up of four main sections:
(1) ascending, (2) transverse, (3) descending sex & the (4) sigmoid. It's total length is approximately 5 to 5 1/2 feet and it ends at the anus where feces eliminated from the body. The small pony's length is approx. 26 ft. long. They are called large and small not because of their length but because of their width & diameter.
