Exactly! Plus, talk about the ol’ bait-and-switch! Alive and well at Best Buy. Whatever great sale is in their ad, you can be sure they will be out of stock by the time you arrive. You can wait for it (an always undefined length of time) or gee, we have this great model of your item over here but it’s just a little more. You can pay that and take it home today. Story of every Best Buy shopping experience over the years here.

As mentioned above, I go to Best Buy to examine the product and then buy it from Amazon. No sales tax (yet) and delivered to my door. No salesperson trying to up-sell me either.

It’s not “bait and switch” if you didn’t get there in time. Retailers don’t have limitless inventory of a particular doodad that happens to be on sale that week.
