I bit the bullet and bought a BenQ 19" LCD monitor for a LANparty coming up this weekend. 16ms response, all the goodies. So, I'm shopping around, shopping around...
Best Buy: $379
NCIX.com: $420
Canada Computers: $369 After MIR
Now, I don't trust Canada Computers. They're shady. So I go to Best Buy. I buy the LCD, charge it to Visa.
"Uhh...your receipt didn't print."
Right. It charged to my card, but didn't print the receipt. I spent $400+ on a monitor and I don't have a record of it being bought?
So the girl has to do a manual transaction record. Takes her like 20 minutes. I'm watching the minutes count down, and realize I don't have time to go to the gym at work anymore. Fvck.
Another CSR comes up to me. "We'll give you the receipt in two days. Come back then please."
At this point, I'm thinking, "WTF? No fvcking way in hell, Best Fvckers." I say "I'm not leaving this store without a receipt", so they give me another copy of the manual transaction record.
An hour after I walk in, I walk out with my flatscreen. It's now been baking out in my car for a little over an hour now...I hope it's still ok.
I CAN'T BELIEVE BEST BUY WAS CHEAPEST. FVCK!
