Default Best buy is dumb

So I call up best buy to see if they have any cases in stock for my 30 gig zune. The person at the counter tells me they do not carry them.

Ok, no worries I will check elsewhere, however I needed to fly by anyhow to pick up a game. I walk in the door, and right next to the customer service counter, like first thing I see

30 gig zune cases.

Good job best buy

Mhm, many BB employees have a bias against Zune's.

Stuff like this belongs in the flame board.

Just because an idiot employee doesn't know what the store carries (nor cares to check) doesn't mean that Best Buy is butt-buddies with Apple. Blaming a franchise based off an experience with one person is ridiculous.

When I was at Best Buy getting my Zune the guy at the counter said he liked it better than the Ipod . Sounds like your best buy is made of fail.

Finally, a voice of reason. That does suck, but the person you were speaking with probably didn't feel like checking, or they were just being lazy, or they figured that they knew something that they didn't. Either way, blaming Best Buy as a whole and calling them Apple fanboys is ridiculous...

I bought my Zune at a Best Buy, and they were really good with it, asking what I would do (watch movie, listen to music) and the employee helping me recommended the Zune, so I bought that...

So either its just me or they had really good service..

Dude, i effin work at Best Buy and i garuntee we aint no apple ******s. Wat u be gettin is the result of ipod saturating the market sum years before Zune came out nd all da lil ******s jumped on da apple bandwagon. All dat is is da o so common apple nut-rider dat helped u. At my store we most commonly reccomend da whole spectrum of mp3 players 2 customers.
