Best Buy has been caught defrauding the public in multiple ways and
instances. Your friend should be more insistant and complain up the chain
of command of Best Buy (ie, dept manager-store manager-corporate office.)
If he doesn't get satisfaction he should contact the state's attorney and
go to the Better Business web page and file a complaint. Usually, by time
I've reached that stage and they've been contacted by the BB and/or AG,
they are ready to jump through hoops to rectify the problem.
