| - Oohhhh shiny. oooohhh blue and yellow. oooohhh now I am on an escalator.
OH GOD WHAT IS THAT INFERNAL BEEPING
oooohhhhhh bright
These were my initial thoughts when entering this bright, shiny second story Best Buy location.
I am a little upset at how 17th is turning into giant corporate land. I was appalled at the Sleep Country, disgusted by the Jamesons and now a Best Buy?!?
But at least there is somewhere close for me to buy blu-rays at now.
There really isn't too much stock in this store though, probably because of the location and the risk of grab and runs. It just feels cramped and the video game section is tiny.
They did have a WiiU setup to try, but then a weird guy wearing a WiiU shirt next to it. So I felt as if I wasn't allowed to touch it, and there were no welcome gestures from t-shirt man of, "yes, come play with this horrible console idea where we took a Sega Game Gear and made it into a new controller/tablet hybrid of horror," despite my starring.
We did manage to buy our intended target of Halo 4, after having to grab a paper print out of the game, bring it to the cashier, who then had to track the guy down who had the one key to open the fortress cabinet containing all the hot video games.
The guy ahead of us in line bought the world's largest TV, which then had to be taken out of the box and pre-inspected to make sure it wasn't broken.
I think the beeping in the store finally stopped as we were leaving.
For a Best Buy that's close to my house, it's alright.
