also, it was funny cause I really wanted my camera now, so I went online to Circuit City and saw there was a 10% off coupon, so I called the store and asked if I can use the coupon code in person. They said yes, so I went. Got the camera headed to the register and this bitchy girl was like "you can't use that code, we need the coupon printed out." She just wouldn't cut me a break. I even showed her on the main webpage about the coupon code, but nothing. So I told her, ok thats fine, I'll go over to best buy. She tired to get me to come back, but just kept walking.

Bestbuy was like 1500 for the kit, so I just put my order through newegg and paid 1360 shipped. I should have done it in the first place, but I'm a inpatient dumbass lol, Those stores won't be getting my money ever again.

Circuit City has some of the worst customer service people I've ever met. And around my area, the stores are always a mess. CDs are mixed up and not where they should be, and you can almost never find someone who knows what they are talking about.

I only go to Best Buy for small non-warranty items, like CDs, DVDs, and X360 games. Anything that has the possibility of breaking on its own (refrigerators, stoves, etc) I get somewhere else that has better customer service and return policies.
