We purchase about $50-60k a year from Fry's. We can buy HP printers
there cheaper than from Ingram Micro or Tech Data. I usually never have
a problem with Frys, but they are scared to screw with me. We purchase
everything by company check and they no longer check with the bank. I
got my bluff in by screaming to the store director and even got through
to Randy Fry once. After I talked to Randy, I haven't had one incident
of them not being very polite or giving me exactly what I want. A new
CSM tried to stop me buying more than the "limit one per customer" CD-R
blanks last year and the supervisor told them to ignore the limit and
give me what ever I needed.
That being said, I never buy anything that has been opened or even looks
like it's been opened. I never buy ram or processors there or hard
drives that are not in sealed factory packages.

See Erics reply. My experiences are at the Wilsonville
store in
Oregon. Every time
I go there I swear I won't go back. But, Being a "JERK", I return
every year or so
for the $19 CDR/W drives and $99 19" monitors. Feh!
Jim.
