Couldn't figure it out at the time. I thought I'd actually been unlucky enough to be victim of a legit price change between looking at a product online and driving to the store to pick it up. I've followed this case with interest and look forward to my class-action settlement check of around 23 cents with much anticipation.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Simon P]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 7th 2007 12:29PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Best Buy lawyer admits to altering documents in racketeering case]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/07/best-buy-lawyer-admits-to-altering-documents-in-racketeering-cas/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/07/best-buy-lawyer-admits-to-altering-documents-in-racketeering-cas/</guid><description><![CDATA[That's the OTHER ruse. --;]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Shinrai]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 7th 2007 3:35PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Best Buy lawyer admits to altering documents in racketeering case]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/07/best-buy-lawyer-admits-to-altering-documents-in-racketeering-cas/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/07/best-buy-lawyer-admits-to-altering-documents-in-racketeering-cas/</guid><description><![CDATA[Whew, I bet they're looking for new counsel for a long time.  They want someone to come on board an extremely time comsuming, losing case with a client who has been smattered with unethical conduct, and I'm sure like most large corporations, want it done "on a budget."  Good luck with that.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[andy]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 7th 2007 12:51PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Best Buy lawyer admits to altering documents in racketeering case]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/07/best-buy-lawyer-admits-to-altering-documents-in-racketeering-cas/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/07/best-buy-lawyer-admits-to-altering-documents-in-racketeering-cas/</guid><description><![CDATA[naw, Best Buy will be paying top dollar for their new counsel.

So far, it just sounds like Best Buy got addicted to subscription bounties and stuck their customers with the bill.<br><br>(And why hasn't AOL been charged as well? They offer the same types of bounties, foisted unknowingly on customers by Best Buy.)]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[yagisencho]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 7th 2007 1:38PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Best Buy lawyer admits to altering documents in racketeering case]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/07/best-buy-lawyer-admits-to-altering-documents-in-racketeering-cas/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/07/best-buy-lawyer-admits-to-altering-documents-in-racketeering-cas/</guid><description><![CDATA[Nothing that Best Buy does surprise me anymore.

(this is why best buy will no longer build giant box stores). I was an employee at best buy and was told to 'push' this product because it combined 'savings for the customer with something they really needed' this was to be sold on anything that was above 200 dollars i think. A LOAD OF CRAP is what it was and i never sold it.. why would anyone want to sign up for an extended usage plan on outgoing tech. I did think this was very misleading to the customer.. but f it im not gonna sell it and if your gonna buy it.. caveat emptor. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[obiwan]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 8th 2007 2:20AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Best Buy lawyer admits to altering documents in racketeering case]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/07/best-buy-lawyer-admits-to-altering-documents-in-racketeering-cas/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/07/best-buy-lawyer-admits-to-altering-documents-in-racketeering-cas/</guid><description><![CDATA[Off topic - but didn't Best Buy promise to get rid of mail-in rebates after so many people complained about them?

I read this and it really hits home.  Since this lawsuit, my store's intranet now has a link to Best Buy local, and one to Best Buy national.  The local site indicates our in store pricing, but for some funny reason, when I try to access the national pricing, which is the pricing the customer sees from home, the website says that it is currently "under construction."  However, if I access yahoo, and search for best buy, and then access the link through the search, I get the national pricing site just fine.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Jman]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Aug 21st 2007 2:32PM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
