| - A great place to look, but not to buy. I like to get my geek out for a walk every once in a while and Fry's is fun to window shop. However as a Power User, someone who builds PC's from scratch and watercools them for fun, I just can't recommend coming here to purchase anything.
Selection is not that great for such a large store. Example: GF needed a cable modem. The only cable modem they had was a $100 DOCSIS 3 modem , that was $85 on Amazon. Totally unnecessary... I bought her a $39 motorola DOCSIS 2 modem on the spot from newegg.com with my iphone. Also, when I come looking for specific model parts for PC builds, they always seem to NOT have the exact one I'm looking for. Odd.
Also the sales people here are just that, SALES people. They will push you to buy whatever they happen to have in the store that kinda fits your need. I've been pitched on so many products other than what I actually want when I walk in here that I can see someone not as involved with components as I am walking out spending too much for something they only kinda need/want.
So overall, good to walk around, don't get pressured, make sure you shop online, maybe get a price match.
