I normally buy all my gear from Muscians Friend anyway (no Guitar Centers here in the islands).
A word to the wise on Best Buy. If you return the item for ANY reason its a 15% restocking fee. So I would be very hopefull you dont buy something thats broke out of the box or it will get expensive in a hurry. |

| the restocking fee doesn't apply to all items usually car-audio equipment and GPS units |

You sure about that? When I worked a few years ago it was their cost plus 5% for the discount.
The thing is, I'd imagine they'd sell this stuff at GC prices except without the ability to negotiate. After the discount, I'm betting it will still be significantly cheaper to buy online from AGI or wherever. |

I seriously doubt they'll be selling any pro level equipment.
They couldn't move enough of them. |

they should, being a big box retailer if they could sell a mix of high and low end stuff they would get my business. Guitar Centers y service a prices can lick my balls. |

I went to Best Buy last night here in Minnesota (The one in Richfield, MN right next to the BB HQ's/Corporate Office). They did have a music area setup, but the DJ equipment so far was pretty lack-luster.
Though, I didn't expect them to be carrying the highest tier equipment, I would've hoped they atleast would've stocked Pioneer CDJ-200s and maybe some 1200's.
All they had at my store so far, was Numark, Stanton & Gemini Mixers & CD Players.
Suprisingly they had Torq in stock though.
What I was really hoping they would be stocking from the get go (though I didn't expect it) was DJ furniture (More specifically Laptop & CDJ Stands). I wasn't going to hold my breathe for that one, but it would have been a very nice suprise.
They were also stocking smaller studio monitors (M-Audio & Behringer), along with larger powered monitors as well.
Best Buy had the music area setup aimed more at the Guitarist & Drummer than the DJ (which is understandable). However, I would've have liked to have seen a little more attention then just a darker corner of the room dedicated to it.
All CDJ's & mixers were setup ready to be demo'd, so atleaset they were on the ball there.
In the end, I was somewhat dissapointed with the selection. Since they seem to be diving into a market head-first, with competition that's been in the game for a long time. I would've expected atleast somewhat higher end equipment to be on the shelves.
Hopefully with time their selection will increase. |

| Yeah, actually, the fact they carry Torq doesn't surprise me because they've carried other M-Audio stuff for a while now (keyboards, FastTrack, etc.) |
