Best Buy Outlet has a specific fridge I want in "Open Box - Excellent" condition for about $700 less than a new version. Anyone have experience with this? I'm concerned something would be wrong with the fridge or the warranty would be out... but then again the warranty is only 1 year anyway.
Basically I came across this device on bestbuy's website and the deal looks too good to be true. So, i have 2 questions to ask
Is this a great deal?
Is it safe to buy open box from bestbuy? Can anyone share their experience if they have purchased an open box from bestbuy before? Are they reliable?
This would be Bestbuy Canada since im from Canada Link to the product -
Asus CM34 Flip
Over the last several months it seems that my store gets flooded with open box appliances on our white goods shipment practically every week. Our neighboring stores don't get nearly as many & half of the open boxes we get have something wrong with them so we can't sell them & have to send them back to the service center. Any ideas why my store gets so many open boxes? On Today's shipment we got 13.
Context I have always heard of Open Box is a great especially if it’s grated as Excellent so I went to Best Buy to get a OLED monitor Open Box and then when I got home hooked it up I saw the most discoloration and burn mark on screen. So I return it for exchange had to go to a different Best Buy Location for the exchange. When I was able to I asked the employee to check for me so it doesn’t happen again since this location was a farther location. He just turned it on and said it was good, I told him can he plug in a HDMI or something to double check but he refused. So had to drive back home to install it again just to have it the same issue but not as serve as the last one but this frustrated me more cause I feel like Best Buy doesn’t check the product. And all they can do is just offer you a return and suggest to buy a brand new one at this point which was $700 more. That whole experience felt scummy likely the pushed me to get the expensive item and only offered me $100 off my inconvenience. Just want to vent that out of my experience and see if anyone has something similar
