Boycott compusa! They fucking suck! - GoFuckYourself.com

B Sandwich · 07-14-2003, 03:50 PM

I bought a $600 nokia 9290 with a $100 2yr replacement plan from these motherfuckers in november. The phone starts having problems, and I go in to get it replaced. They call me today and say "We cant replace this phone because it has already been replaced in january" that is bullshit, I've never even tried to replace the phone before. I'm going in to fight with the manager tomorrow morning. Fuck these ripoff artists and dont buy shit from their store, and if you do, dont spend money on their bullshit replacement plans.

Mr.Fiction · 07-14-2003, 03:51 PM

Shouldn't Nokia replace it for you?

IntenseCash · 07-14-2003, 03:51 PM

yeah that is bullshit they can

dr00 · 07-14-2003, 03:53 PM

I hear ya, I went on their website found a wireless router I wanted for $79.99 and a $30.00 mail in rebate. I get to the store and the price is $149.99. So I asked the guy and he said that I had to order it through the website to get the price none of the stores would give me that price. So I ended up driving another half hour to Frys to get the same router for the cheaper price.

I'm not too sure, I just figured I'd go to compusa first because they are the ones I purchased the replacement plan from. and to top it all off, the guy behind the counter said I needed to give him the phone and replacement plan, so now I have nothing, not even a receipt. I cant even check to see what nokia's replacement plan is.

I don't know about you but those huge corporate computer stores never had any good deals anyways,

my local korean owned computer store got everything i need at half the price,

In those stores all you pay more for is that big ass box

High Quality · 07-14-2003, 07:20 PM

Everyone should know that compusa sucks balls. I once bought a 400W power supply there that was basically it in a cardboard box. I asked the salesman if there was a restocking fee on it and he replied no. So I get it home and its fucked so I bring it back and just want my money back and the fucker was like, "15% restocking."

I told him to shove it up his ass. Needless he was impressed and didn't charge me the restocking. Compusa sucks.

twistyneck · 07-14-2003, 07:47 PM

CompUSA is great. I've spent thousands there and have had nothing but excellent luck with each and every purchase. The sales people there have always been extremely helpful.

Best Buy on the other hand, now those fuckstains are a completely different story.
