I work at Best Buy in computers and I feel personally attacked.

i work at best buy. there are bad salesmen but there are good ones too. none of the salesmen get commission, so usually when they recommend they recommend something its because they believe in that product. but yeah there are some salesmen that dont know what theyre talking about

The only thing that should be purchased “pre built” are laptops.

I will say as a best buy employee in the computer department we are way more knowledgeable then how you made it seem in this video. I agree there are some employees that don't know as much about the products here. I might just be lucky and have amazing co workers but almost all of us are pc gamers and have built our own PCs. As far as the computer in the video I couldn't agree more the parts used are very cheep but there are much better options than the HP.

Kristofer, as a Best Buy employee, I can tell you we don’t make money on our computers. We sell them at cost, and they expect us as sales reps to attach things to make us money. Our employee discount is 5% above cost, but on computers and name brands we get no discount because there is no profit to take from.

I agree completely with your analysis of the types of parts the manufacturers use, and I tell my customers the same things. I encourage them to purchase components instead, and make sure to pricematch with the cheapest price I can find.

While I love your videos and I’m happy to support this channel, I think that if you’re going to focus a video or an idea around a specific retailer or business, you should ask someone like me, or find a reliable source from the business itself rather than making assumptions standing on the outside. I don’t mean this as a tear down, simply a suggestion for a better approach in the future.
