Best Buy has really missed an opportunity to stick it to Amazon. They own a huge amount of retail space that could double as warehouse/online order fulfillment. You know you aren’t getting counterfeit merchandise. Returns are simpler thru walk in. You can inspect before purchase.
Instead, you walk into the retail space and they are out of everything. A warehouse should never be empty.
I decided to finally get an action camera a couple weeks ago. I watched however many hours of video between the GoPro and DJI Action, finally decide on the Action 4, Best Buy says they have it so I go to the store.
There’s fucking no one there. The entire camera area has basically bare shelves, they don’t even have the action 4 displayed or any indication that they sell it despite being one of basically two options, and there’s no one to get to go get me one. I ended up putting in an order on the app and wandering the mall for 20 minutes.

Best Buy is going to be the next Circuit City. The only question is when.
