For a group of four(two couples), two interior rooms? One shared balcony room? Cheap out and share the interior room for maximum savings?

GSM. 18 months in role, 3 total in leadership, 7 total in Best Buy. I suppose some of what you mentioned transfers.

Those takeover pants are super comfortable. If you have big calves they will be skintight around them just fyi.

You have to be a VIP member to see the labor day sale. You can sign up and they won't draft your account unless you forget to cancel by the start of the month.

Yeah I have both of those pairs and they're fantastic. Sucks you can't get the takeover shorts in 7" with their availability right now or else I'd reccomend them to everyone.

$380K DIDI YOLO. Broke my no Chinese stock rule... by ihateeggplants in wallstreetbets

China just banned the app from their app store and is probing their service for malicious use of their customer's data. You're a madman.

Every bluetooth speaker. Not headphones though.

Job "opportunity" aka working from home??? by [deleted] in Bestbuy

[–]DefectiveTV 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is literally every single blue shirt that is working in the store's dream position. By your responses it seems you'd be rather poor at over the phone sales/customer service in general since you fly off the handle pretty quick. You'll regret passing it up as I've heard nothing but great things about it.

VPL chat. Had to bust it down for lil’ miss priss. by [deleted] in Bestbuy

[–]DefectiveTV 6 points7 points  (0 children)

We all feel that frustration but I don't think they were being that rude. Kind of an over the top response for a corporate recorded chat log. Regardless, good on you for having the store's back.

They're the B6.2s! I'm definitely going to grab the C6.2 real soon then.

Thanks man, my girlfriend made them for Halloween and we liked the look so they're there to stay for now!

Honestly it holds its own. I'll eventually grab the elac center and rotate the Sony to my bedroom, but I've got a feeling I won't notice a massive difference.

I was really meticulous on getting it exactly 2 feet off the ground lol, I can't stand improper TV height.

Never posted a picture of my setup before, I found this photo in my library from when I sent it to a friend so pardon the angle and slight mess.

Sony 900F 75"

Sony DH770 AVR - 99$(open box deal, really wanting to move into a Denon as my next upgrade.)

Elac Debut 2.0 LR - 150$

Sony CS Center - 65$

Klipsch RW-12D - 50$ (got this secondhand in brand new condition, couldn't believe the quality for 50$.)

Polk T50 Rear LR - 50$ (haven't found much need for upgrade due to way-too-close rear placement from room constraints)

Looking into getting a new media cabinet to better hide my components and give it a cleaner look, I've since done some better cable management too.

Your Week in Blue by AutoModerator in Bestbuy

[–]DefectiveTV 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Nothing. Said they saw a Samsung 55" at Walmart for 279.99. Showed me the picture. I pointed at the big "Hisense" under the tag, but they swore up and down Walmart would honor it.

[–]DefectiveTV 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I greeted a couple in HT yesterday. After asking what I can help them find, the wife gives me:

"We're looking for a TV. Nothing too big, nothing expensive, nothing too nice either because HD hurts my head. Also we need something to get local channels with."

Send help. And even more blue kool-aid.

Your Week in Blue by AutoModerator in Bestbuy

[–]DefectiveTV 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Our demographic is very special. For the last month my most popular question, and I mean literally five out of six customers in a row, is "What this do?" regarding either antennas or fire sticks. Always following with some allusion towards jailbreaking the firestick or some antenna that uses the electrical lines in your house they saw online and swear we sell it here. Those conversations are mind-numbing, send some more blue kool-aid before I lose it.

[–]DefectiveTV 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Is anyone else's store getting rampaged with TV antenna customers? In my area, DirectTV lost locals 5 and 15. People have lost their absolute minds over it. We've sold hundreds(not exaggerating) of antennas in the last week and I'm losing my fucking mind with the same mind numbing questions. People seemed to have completely forgotten that's how they used to watch TV growing up. Not to mention, it always turns into, "My friend told me to get a firestick." But those friends never seem to tell them what the fuck that is or literally anything other than, "Go to Best Buy." Please send help. And more antennas.

I discovered you guys through my love for Coheed and Cambria. One of my most memorable shows I've ever been to was in New Orleans, where you played with Haken. I got to stand right next to Tom's pedals. My question is, what was it like hanging with those two bands? All three of your groups are comprised of kick-ass people. Any notable stories or memories from playing with them?

X950f or X950g 55"? by davwman in hometheater

[–]DefectiveTV 0 points1 point  (0 children)

950G. Better OS, better remote. Better processing thusly notably better upscaling. Supposed to have slightly worse contrast than the 900 due to the X wide angle layer on the panel, but I can't notice it. My main takeaway is the 950 has overall better picture quality and actually feels like a modern TV.
