Just got mine, but Target didn’t make it easy for me. In hind sight, I should have just gone to Bestbuy to price match.
Target.com showed “out of stock”, but showed a local store in my area that had several in stock. I went over there, figuring I would just buy it on my lunch break. The price in the aisle still showed $79.00.
The guy in electronics couldn’t find the item in his computer, so he sent me to customer service. They couldn’t find it either, and the manager refused to pricematch their own online price, even when I showed it to them. They told me I had to buy it online. And then they could give it to me.
So, slightly annoyed, I took a few minutes to purchase the item, and went back to customer service to show them I had purchased it. They then told me I had to wait for the stockroom to fulfill the order, which could take two hours according to the app, and there was no way to expedite the request. I had just handed them the battery!!!!
So, now very annoyed ( but not taking it out on them) I took off, figuring I would just pick it up on my way home from work. I grabbed some quick fast food across the street, and while I was waiting for my order, a message came from Target, indicating I could pick up my battery.
So, I drove back to Target, waiting yet again in the customer service line. “What, that fast”, the lady said, “No, it can’t have been processed that fast...” she said. She told me it wasn’t there, but fortunately someone else told her it was in the locked case behind her. She didn’t believe them, but sure enough, that was it.
It took me an hour, but as I left Target with battery in hand, I started thinking. Of ways I will avoid their store in the future.
