It's probably safe to buy them there now. I'm sure that hill billy isn't working there anymore.

I'm not even sure that is a Walmart store that they are filming inside. Hard to believe there storage rooms would be so messy, the ones I have seen are much, much more organized and structured.

Colmike9 · 11-11-2012, 09:21 AM

Don't buy anything from Walmart. Even though they have name brand products that you buy anywhere else, they pressure a lot of companies to make 'Walmart' versions with lower quality parts and labor..

I won't be caught dead at a Walmart lol

I agree there's no way that is a Walmart warehouse. It looks more like a dump for defective or returned merchandise. Walmart moves millions of items a day in and out of their warehouses so it would be alot bigger, brighter, and super organized for efficiency. Plus hate Walmart all you want, but hillbillies like this would have been caught and fired long before they would have had a chance to film this.

Let's hope this video lives forever and these losers never get hired for anything ever again.

Almost, sort of, but not exactly, and they aren't the only ones.

Future Shop / Best Buy do the same thing but they are more evil about it. Check this out:

When Futureshop places an order for Panasonic TV's for example, they don't buy just 10 or 20. They buy 10 or 20 thousand units at a pop. Let's say they want Model XYZ123 of this brand of TV. They tell the makers that they want an extra feature that is ONLY available to Future Shop, AND will have a unique model number such as XYZ123-A.

This model is only available to Futureshop. So if you're in the market for a TV and you find the TV (Model XYZ123) you want at a speciality store and decide to competition shop at Futureshop, you can't. The models are slightly different and so are the prices. Futureshop practically forces you to buy the TV from them because you can't compare prices properly.

PS If you must buy from Futureshop, never buy the extended warranty: It's a major rip-off. Also never buy specialty cables and power bars with "power conditioners" from companies like Monster Cable. Another scam.

Precisely.

And I'm surprised by the number of people who aren't aware of this marketing scheme. It's not just electronics...I've seen it with hardware/power tools in various big retailer stores (Canadian Tire, Rona, Lowes).

When I was in high school I had a few friends that worked at a local grocery store. During their break, they would take canned goods and throw them against the wall out back. Obviously it made a massive mess.

I still check in with the one every now and then. He jumps from minimum wage job to minimum wage job.

How is that evil?

They are selling the same TV that you can buy at a countless number of other outlets, including online. They need some sort of edge. A special feature sounds like a great idea to me.

I don't think any of those 'special features' are better than the original.
ex: using a cheaper but different gpu.

It also keeps people from buying the item one place for cheaper and returning to another to get the difference since the model # and likely the bar code is different.

Tricking people into thinking that they're getting the same thing..

SilentKnight · 11-11-2012, 05:13 PM

Back in 1980 I worked in the distribution warehouse for Sanyo/Fisher/Magnasonic in Toronto - picking orders and loading tractor-trailers.

If you think product abuse is bad at the retail level in stores - it's nothing compared to the way some of the stuff is handled at the warehouse/distribution level.

The guys I worked with would use VCR boxes to play shuffleboard on the floor of the transport trucks they were loading...sliding the boxes the full length of a 48ft. trailer. They'd pound the crap out of the boxes to tightly pack them in like wedges (every square inch of trailer space meant money, after all). Skids loaded with product would get slammed together constantly with the forklifts.

No handling with kid gloves.

TVs, home stereos, speakers...nothing was exempt from abuse on the loading docks. If products fell out of boxes, they'd repackage and reseal them with factory seal tape right on the spot.

Suffice to say - I never bought a Sanyo product after working there.

Similiarly, we bought an HP Pavilion from FutShop around the same time - it had a 4GB harddrive.

We'd always had custom desktop PCs built for us up till that point - so this was out first outta-the-box system we'd bought.

When we unboxed it at home, found out 2GB of the drive was taken up with an HP-modified version of Windows. Tons of multimedia crap we didn't want or need. And when I started removing stuff...it crapped out the system.

Had to restore the OS from scratch - which brought it back to 2GB (50% of the drive used up).

Even with my best diplomacy and attempt to explain we weren't aware at POS that half the harddrive had already been used up with the OS and the junk multimedia - FutShop refused to return the system a few days later.

Long and short of it - we were stuck with the system. Over the course of the next year we went through four M50 HP monitors - all of which had defects.

I've not set foot in a FutureShop since then. Not once.

These types of companies have been doing this for years. Just look at mattresses, you'll never find the same mattress anywhere within 100 miles of where you live. We don't have futureshop here in miami, but we have tigerdirect, bestbuy and a few others. Forget these junk houses and build your own computers from NewEgg and buy your TV from Costco. Stay the hell away from Wal-Mart or you will become just like them. While I'm at it, fuck Chick-fil-a and Papa Johns pizza.

96ukssob · 11-12-2012, 01:59 PM

this is EXACTLY what happens when you have someone working for $8/hr who believes they should be making $100k/year

thats the biggest problem with this country, people always think they deserve more than they are worth

plus all these fucking unions that protect the gimps of society from getting fired because they suck at their job.

point being is people need to FEAR being canned for acting like morons or not doing a good job. As a business owner, I make every employee and contractor sign an agreement that I can fire them at anytime with no notice, the same should go for Walmart and other stores but they are to afraid of these low-life's suing them, its easier to keep paying them instead

L-Pink · 11-12-2012, 02:03 PM

I can proudly say I have NEVER purchased anything from walmart. I have even made employees return anything they have purchased if they expect me to reimburse them for it.

More should have the same attitude but American consumers are idiots.

I have friends in Pikeville. The area has a lot more than it's share of red-necks. That's Hatfield & McCoy territory and a wrecked economy based on coal production which has basically stopped. Some of the poorest counties in America and a place where walmart is worshipped. These guys were probably run out of town.

It's evil because it is unfair competition against the specialty shops. A speciality shop has a hard time competing against the super stores because the super stores buy in high volume as you know, but its worse than that. They force manufactures to make special items just for them that CAN'T be purchased anywhere else, and CAN'T be properly shopped by the consumer who doesn't understand the difference.

More importantly at the end of every day the stores sales are transferred out of that town never to be re-spent or invested in that town. A small town version of trade imbalance that walmaert is also responsible for on a larger national scale.

Seems Walmart has a different reputation to Asda here in the UK. Strange...

beks001 · 11-12-2012, 07:50 PM

The manufacturer should be packaging their products well enough to withstand any nature of minor abuse. If not then in the end it will be the product that fails and the brand name of such.

These slobs deserve to get fired. Maybe next time they will use there brains. Good news is they got 3 millions hits. Bad news is, they were dumb enough to not realize they could have made a little bit of money from the video if done right.

Sigh....another set of unintelligent individuals amongst us. Too bad, so sad...

And for the record both Walmart and Target are perfectly fine for certain items at a good price imo. I'm not ashamed to save $$$$.

If you think product abuse is bad at the retail level in stores - it's nothing compared to the way some of the stuff is handled at the warehouse/distribution level. The guys I worked with would use VCR boxes to play shuffleboard on the floor of the transport trucks they were loading...sliding the boxes the full length of a 48ft. trailer. They'd pound the crap out of the boxes to tightly pack them in like wedges (every square inch of trailer space meant money, after all). Skids loaded with product would get slammed together constantly with the forklifts. No handling with kid gloves. TVs, home stereos, speakers...nothing was exempt from abuse on the loading docks. If products fell out of boxes, they'd repackage and reseal them with factory seal tape right on the spot. Suffice to say - I never bought a Sanyo product after working there.

As a business owner, I make every employee and contractor sign an agreement that I can fire them at anytime with no notice, the same should go for Walmart and other stores but they are to afraid of these low-life's suing them, its easier to keep paying them instead __________________ Email: Clicky on Me

I have even made employees return anything they have purchased if they expect me to reimburse them for it. More should have the same attitude but American consumers are idiots.

If not then in the end it will be the product that fails and the brand name of such. These slobs deserve to get fired. Maybe next time they will use there brains. Good news is they got 3 millions hits. Bad news is, they were dumb enough to not realize they could have made a little bit of money from the video if done right. Sigh....another set of unintelligent individuals amongst us. Too bad, so sad... And for the record both Walmart and Target are perfectly fine for certain items at a good price imo. I'm not ashamed to save $$$$. __________________ [B]341 people reviewed this!?!?! Blogging Thread! Teen Cams Gay Webcam Best Free File Storage Last edited by beks001; 11-12-2012 at 07:55 PM..
