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.

Man you really are a horrible poster.

Nothing you post is remotely believable. Your desperate need for attention is quite pathetic.

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

Hey Jon, you suck at negotiating prices down . Let me tell you about a negotiation I once had where I really negoiated a great deal for myself.

In my younger years I spent some time in Italy. I was only there for a short time as part of an investigation I was part of.

Anyway the last night I was there I engaged a lady of the night. Beautiful Italian girl. I had a great night that night with her, the next morning when she demanded that i pay her I negotiated the price down to zero and made my way to the airport.

THAT is a great negotiator my friend.

Is your buddy the guy who started the thread a couple days ago about needing a loan from a loan shark?

Mediocre fake story.

Thing about Best Buy is that they are very careful with the type of stuff they carry. They have those expensive arse HDMI cables for a reason, cause they are expensive/overpriced pretty much everywhere. The money makers, like TV’s, are going to be pretty competitive in prices, so even if you go through trouble of price-matching it probably won’t be much different.

Having said that, Best Buy is great if you need a replacement ASAP, otherwise just be smart and use Amazon Prime. Amazon has their own hdmi cables that are like 5 dollars, and they work as good as that shite from Best Buy

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.
