No wonder Best Buy is being destroyed by the internet

Our Garmin traffic power cord lost it's tip, so I went about town looking for replacement parts. I hit Radio Shack and Best Buy. Radio Shack is very easy place to get service since it rarely has customers. Dude there told me they didn't sell parts, just the units. What I needed wasn't in stock.

When I went to Best Buy, I had to wander about to find the GPS section. It was in a spot in the store where time stopped and no one could be found for help. Store must have had 7 blue shirted types in the cell phone area and there weren't helping anyone I could see. Places like Best Buy seem to hire people to be tethered to hot spots that rake most profits. No one needs a GPS when they have an iPhone, I guess.

So I left Best Buy with out being noticed by the fifty people working. There may have been at total of 10 potential customers in the store. Sad. Such a big store with nothing to offer.
