 Post subject: Best Buy AnticsPosted: Tue Feb 08, 2005 10:10 am 
So I'm looking around in the E section in Best Buy, and the friendly employee comes up to see if I need help. Best Buy Guy: Can I help you with something? Dave: Yeah, I'm looking for Eisley. Best Buy Guy: Rich Isley? Oh yeah, he's right over... Dave: No no. Eisley with an E. Best Buy Guy: *blank stare* Dave: You know, like Mos Eisley? Best Buy Guy: Like what? Dave: You know, in Star Wars? Best Buy Guy: *shrug* Dave: le sigh. E-I-S-L-E-Y. Best Buy Guy: I'll see what I can do. So the guy goes to his little computer and does a search, then comes back. Best Buy Guy: Well we have 3 in stock, but I'll have to go to the back to get one. Dave: Only 3 left? Woo doggy. I'm cutting it close. Best Buy Guy: Naw, we only ordered 3. You're the first to buy one. So he goes into the back and gets it. Silly, silly best buy. Great album, though. *thumbs up* |

That was just about my experience too. The lady said she had to go look in the back and when she came out she said it was "really buried back there". I almost screamed, lol. Let's hope most places stock better than stupid best buy. I put the whole story in the "my room noises experiences" sticky thread. |

Wow, I am impressed that they found it in the computer; last time I went there for a cd they said they did not have an album, but I found it at the store. There is a reason why Barnes and Noble was my first choice. _________________ http://www.myspace.com/whisperingtrees |

They only had one at my Best Buy.. I had to go to another store because they sold it right before I got there. |

It looks like they started with at least 10 or more at my Best Buy. It seems like a handful have been purchased already. But I am also about 50 minutes away from their house, so it might be different here.  _________________ My photography:www.jamiemphoto.com You can't spell awesome without emo...backwards! -Julie definingawesome (11:44:11 PM): Eisley shivers our timbers |

I went to Best Buy and they only had 3 copies of Room Noises. I guess they're playing it safe by only ordering a few _________________ "Aren't we all hanging from a fragile vine awaiting an inevitable plunge to doom while mice gnaw at our temporary safety?

"le sigh"  My friend says/types that, too. I love it.
I couldn't find it at Best Buy, but I didn't ask. They did have 1 Marvelous Things EP, though. I just went to Barnes & Noble a few steps away, and they had some on display at the counter. It looked like they had quite a few copies. |

I already had a copy of the album, but I went to look at stores this afternoon... Best Buy had none out for sale... I looked on the rack of stuff to be put out, but didn't see it... I saw a flood of 3 Doors Down albums... I was worried... Hastings had 3 copies... They also had a misprint of the Marvelous Things E.P. that I should have bought... Then again, there are other albums to buy in the future that I will need money for... I didn't look elsewhere... Then again, is there an "elsewhere" in College Station? _________________ Kyle |
