    BB wouldn't let me buy 5 for student incentives. There was no sign limiting the # allowed to be purchased.
    Noe M.

    Update Review on 5/25/2017: Normally, when I leave a Best Buy store, I leave with a giant smile. Their staff is friendly, have memorized my name because of how often I shop here, and are always knowledgeable about the items I have an interest in. Today, I had a different experience. I walked into the store at 700 Jackson around 5:00 PM and I saw a rack with Bluetooth speakers from the Best Buy brand, Insignia. They were marked down to 9.99, down from 40.00. This was not a shock to me, as I normally buy these very same speakers for the same price around the months of March (spring deals) and November (Black Friday deals). I figured this was part of a back-to-school sale, fitting, since I am a teacher and I use these as incentives for students. The register didn't show 9.99, it displayed 19.99. The clerk called Anna, a manager, and when she came over, she said that they would honor the price for two but not all 5 I wanted to buy. I asked her, "How could you be 'honoring' the price when it is the price advertised?" She said, "It's an error on our part but I can't let you have all five." I showed her a picture (I've uploaded the picture to Yelp) showing the rack in which not 1, but all SKUs (the SKU changes based on the color of the speaker) were marked down for 9.99. That's a large margin for an error. She still insisted on two speakers. I asked if she could honor 2 speakers from one SKU and 1 speaker from another. She still declined. I still rate the store 2 stars because she wasn't being rude nor was I. At the end of the transaction, I thanked her for her time and shook her hand. However, I left disappointed that I won't have enough speakers to give out as incentives for my students and neither will my wife, who teaches at a different district. __________________________________________________________ Best Buy is a great place to shop for tech. Many of the things I need are found around the store easily or with the help of a rep. Game-wise, they have a wide variety of games available to you including the PS4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PC as well as other handheld devices. For a streamer like me, I've been able to buy all the gadgets I need to succeed, from the ElGato stream device to self-powered USB 3.0 extenders. When I wanted to purchase my Oculus Rift, there was an Oculus Rift representative available to let me test it out before my purchase. Today, I went to pick up an online order. It was a movie quadrilogy called The Mummy. I placed the order online and was able to get it 10 dollars off with a pre-order. I have to give a big shoutout to Val, the rep that usually is there when I pick up my orders. She takes not that I shop constantly and remembers my name. She always greets me with a smile and treats me like a human rather than a customer. I don't know what position she holds within the Best Buy store but she should train other reps in the store to model the way she does customer service. Great job Val!

    No one EVER answers the phone. It's horrible. Can they at least answer and assure their customers that they will be helped?!?!?!

    Terrible customer service. Waited 30 minutes to pickup an order and the store had maybe 10 customers total.

    Very helpful clientele First time i didnt have to look for…read morea representative. Very attentive Clean store for a change

    I had almost polar opposite experiences from the other reviewers of this particular Home Depot. I…read morealmost come to expect bad or non-existing customer service in the Valley so the employees at this location really surprised me. Long story short: I was doing a multitude of repairs/remodeling in my house in Texas and came to this Home Depot over the Christmas break at least 5 times in the week and a half that I was in McAllen. There was a young lady in particular that worked in the flooring department that answered every dumb question I had and was patient with showing me color suggestions for tiles and tile materials. I hate that I forgot her name (maybe early 20s, short, short hair) but she was so nice and helpful during a process that, for me, is stressful and not enjoyable. Other employees were also very helpful. I also had to buy kitchen countertops while I was in Tucson for pickup at this Home Depot location, and Ruben at the Pro-Desk was so helpful at suggesting material that was in their inventory (because the countertops I originally wanted were non-existent at this location). Better yet, he followed up with me when he had promised to. I am doing research and planning for my wedding in McAllen, and people in the Valley do not follow up when they say they will (wtf?) yet the folks at this home depot keep it uber professional. Thumbs up all the way!
