Best Buy Offers Bogus "3D Sync" Service
Token_Internet_Girl writes "Fewer than two weeks after Best Buy offered the first Full 3D HDTVs for sale in the US, its latest Sunday circular (3/21/10) promotes a Samsung 3D TV deal consisting of a 55" 3D TV, 3D capable Blu-ray player, 2 pairs of glasses, a Blu-ray movie and Geek Squad delivery and installation. The ad states the service includes TV and Blu-ray player set-up, connection to your wireless network and 'sync your 3D glasses for an amazing experience.' The package price lists the 'geek' services as a $150 value. The offer's only problem is that there is no such thing as syncing 3D glasses. They sync automatically." Here's Best Buy Corporate's response to this hilarity.
No need to sync the glasses thanks - now knock off a hundred and fifty bucks from your price.
Once I was a four stone apology. Now I am two separate gorillas.
Your first response should be "Any attempt at upselling will automatically cancel any interest I have in purchasing from your store."
If he persists you say "You are now harassing me and I will call the police if you do not stop."
After that, they pretty much will leave you alone and do exactly what you say.
Still waiting on Serviscope_minor to wake up to fucking reality and realize that Jessica Price isn't going to fuck him.
