You really pulled a fast one on the 23 year old electronics manager who doesn't give a shite.

I tell the manager that works, but only if I can get the display TV so I don’t have to waste time doing all the unpacking and can just plug it in right when I get home.


Bought a shitty 43" TV that's been on for 12 hours a day seven days a week for months and felt like he stole from Best Buy...

Did you just decide you wanted to create a really lame story?

Update: My bud missed a payment on his TV and Best Buy took the tv back. I told him not to worry, the Black Friday deals are even better than the deal I got him. You can now get a 43” 2160p for just $200. He got in a financial hole due to a bad beat he took at the track. Thinking about starting a go fund me to get him a tv. It really was a bad beat and I feel bad because I told him it was free money.

OP reminded me of that episode of King of The Hill when Hank Hill thought he was such a great negotiator becuase he "only" paid sticker for new cars.

What a stupid post.

About 10 minutes later his manager comes up and asks what he can do for me. I said Im interested in this TV but it’s too much. He asks what my budget is and I say that’s none of his business. Again, you could tell he realized he wasn’t dealing with your average customer, you could see it “click” in his eyes that he realized he was in for a tough negotiation.


Or he was suppressing his inner rage and frustration with life

What's impressive to me is not only did you many of us to read this, but you apparently got several ranters to do the math to find out what you saved.

You paid $276 for a TV that BestBuy sells online for $199.00 with free shipping. You could have got a better deal without even leaving your house. You are a damn tech savvy genius alright.
