Comment on Bestbuy decided to use fucking **DOORDASH** to deliver my order, I couldn't cancel it. Today I was supposed to get it, and I saw the driver stealing the package after marking it as delivered.

  Tbf, in-store is probably fine, just don’t do Online buying and delivery unless you have confirmation that they switched back to normal UPS or Fedex or something.

    I mean, what else is shady if they can’t even get proper deliveries. I would avoid them out of principle.

        Microcenter, perhaps.

        If you don’t have a Micro Center nearby there’s really not a good choice. Just do Newegg or Amazon and hope for the best.

        We have plenty to choose from here in Sweden, so not really an issue for us, but also not really helpful to you either. Sorry! 😬

  I stopped shopping at Best Buy in the 1990s when one store asked me to leave. I was writing down some prices so I could do some comparison shopping.

  Yeah because you’re totally a 65 year old that buys electronics at Best Buy

  You might as well cross off Home Depot too. I ordered something from them online cause it was cheaper online than in store and for some strange reason they don’t honor their online prices in store but ship you that item from that store. I digress. Anyway, I ordered a power tool and they doordashed it out to my house. I was so fucking confused by it. Thankfully I received my item, but we’ve had issues with doordash before.

  ok but isn’t the problem clearly with doordash? why would this be bestbuys fault?

  • JcbAzPx@lemmy.world ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

    Because they’re using an inherently insecure delivery service for expensive electronics. Extremely clear case of negligence.

      if doordash is inscure, why does it exist? how are they still in buisiness if they can’t be trusted?

        Most of what they deliver isn’t worth stealing. If they continue trying to take over the high end courier business, though, I doubt they’ll last long.
