Best Buy or Circuit City? Or other?

I've always liked Best Buy, selection, price, warranty and return policy, but lately I've been buying online more and from other electronics stores... What's your choice, and why?

    I buy lots of stuff from Best Buy, except products with rebates on them. I have also purchased many things from Circuit City, and really like their return policies, but I am not near a Circuit City where I live now. I find that all the electronics stores, both online and off, carry the same products, so mostly I look for the best price I can find, which is usually on-line, and the selection is better than in the stores. My tendency recently is to look at a product in the store, read the reviews, and buy it for the best price I can find, although I am more comfortable buying large purchases (big LCD TV for instance) from a real store.

    In my experiences...Best Buy has more selection and is more reliable. I never go to Circuit City anymore. I always go to Best Buy!

    Also, u can always check eBay. They have new electronics on there that u can usually get more a decent price. Like if you're looking for an iPod or something small like that.

    I like circuit city a lot more because best buy isn't that close to me while circuit city is just down the street. I don't like circuit cities warranty though so I would have to go with best buy on that one.

    i am going to do some thing i am going to to not save at perfect purchase, even although that must be troublesome. they don't have a foul decision although this is not that enormous both. they have terrible expenditures, "perfect purchase" up my ***, I once went procuring for DVDs for my cousin. I were given it for $15 at Costco. It replaced into $25 at objective and $40 5 at perfect purchase (isn't that ridiculous?) Oh there go back rules are also negative, I have had undesirable studies with that. also from my journey in any respect 3 perfect Buys in my section, the employees are rude and careless young children. regrettably perfect purchase is everywhere so this is troublesome to stay away from... yet certain, Fry's is staggering!

    I have had a better experience with Best Buy. However, Circuit City isn't at all bad. I would go with whatever is closer thus more convenient.

    I do pretty good with both of them, but out of those 2, i like Best Buy. I've bought from them online in the past with no problem.

    I like buying from stores. I like knowing that there is someone i can find later on if there happens to be a problem with the product I just purchased.

    If you're buying stuff online, it's hard to beat the deals at newegg.com. If you're shopping at BB or CC, I gotta go with CC. In my city at least, the employees there are friendlier and more helpful.

    Best Buy because they gave me a higher charge card limit and the store is bigger.
