All that said you haven't convinced me that
Fry's doesn't suck rocks.
Sure other stores have their problems and sure some stores have some of
Fry's policies but there is no place around that has the full compliment
of BS that Fry's provides, including reselling known-damaged returns (I
KNOW CompUSA, Best Buy and Circuit City, to name a few competitors,
won't do that)
Evil idea: buy something from Fry's, open it up, disconnect a few wires or
remove a few ICs, leave some sort of note inside, then put it back
together and into the package, mark the package in some discreet way, then
return it and tell the clerk it's broken. Next day, go back to the store
and see if it's on the shelves. Bring a news media crew with you.
