Editorial Review for Best Buy – by Chris Barsanti
The Scene
The music section is one of the best around, especially the pop and hip-hop sections. Best Buy was one of the first chains to carry indie recording artists in depth and maintains that commitment today. Plus, it has back stock, rather than just carrying a band's latest Top 40 and ignoring five earlier ones. Prices aren't rock bottom, but they are very reasonable.
The Goods
The place is huge, stocked with personal computers, TVs, home appliances, CDs, DVDs, videos, Sega/Nintendo/Gameboy machines and games, bestseller books, software, fax machines, and VCRs and DVD players. PC prices are decent, but they don't bundle them with externals as much as places like Circuit City and CompUSA do.
