You could sell them for $20 and it would still be a ridiculous margin, and people would flock to it. 55 Paul 2009-05-12 14:04:42 UTC 1 false 79 rocketfish 78 private label 76 accessories 77 hardware 3 57 2009-05-14 13:06:36 UTC 7 1 Box stores take up way too much land!

How about demos in store? Put a bunch of cool & popular apps on phones in the store, and let people try them out hands on. 55 Paul 2009-05-12 14:04:42 UTC 1 false 0 43 2009-05-12 14:29:45 UTC 3 14 There's a LOT of waste at Best Buy.

To those who don't get it, the advantage is security. Every time you use your credit card, you are giving out your credit card number — and opening the door to having it stolen. With Paypal, you have to authorize each individual transaction. Only Paypal has the CC number; merchants don't receive it. Now instead of your credit card number being in the hands of EVERY place you buy something, it's only in one company's database. Result: lower risk of identity theft. Yes, I'm sure that Best Buy's data security practices are up to industry standards. But it only takes one slip-up by one merchant to compromise a whole bunch of credit card numbers … and it happens even to the biggest and the best. It even happens to those who are up to the industry standard. By offering Paypal, Best Buy would offer customers a little more peace of mind. 55 Paul 2009-05-12 14:04:42 UTC 1 false 399 674 2009-07-17 16:20:26 UTC 8 Why Reward Zone customers only?

Easy to lose sight of that in the midst of all the new technology buzz.
