yeah I know, thats what they were supposed to do, but the service center was telling the store that I was scamming them by switching laptops

well Best Buy is bunch of liars
they didn't even order my laptop
they said there is none in stock, none at the other stores, and they don't know when they can get it.
so now here I am, I just paid my DSL bill (63.11) and I have no computer to use it with!!!!!
I have cut loose on a few people, but I am to the point where I am about to start screaming. I have been very patient with them and their games, but I am really sick of it

Damn dude, I wouldn't put up with that $hit! I think I would have lost it along time ago with these people.

I'm trying to keep from yelling at people who can't help me :/
once I find out who is responsible... no holds barred

FINALLY got my laptop back
this is QUITE an upgrade
went from a 15.4in to a 17in monitor
20 extra gb hd
video card has its own ram which as far as I know is unusual for a laptop
I have a number pad on this one too!!
its a very nice laptop
pentium 4 w/ ht
HP Pavilion zd8000
big laptop
but I am finally appeased and off of best buy's back
I told them today I will be coming in everyday until I get a laptop
also told them my biggest regret of my life was purchasing my laptop there

I work there, I could probably get you the phone number of the place that actually did the repair, since they could actually authorize an exchange?

thanks, its all good now
and I did have the number, it just rings 15 times and goes to an answering machine that they ignore
the exchange was completed on a store level, and they are going to take the fight up with the service center themselves

anytime you buy a laptop and will be using it everyday, make sure it has a 5400 RPM harddrive in it....make sure the hardrive dosent mount ANYwhere there is going to be any type of constant pressure over the top of it. These types will always go bad....stay away from using a USB port that is near where the harddrive is mounted...if you spike the USB port, most likely the HDD will go too.

Buy a laptop that you can customize, even the placement of drives.

and always buy the extended warranty. [img]smile.gif[/img]
