You know what, FUCK MICROCENTER! That place is terrible. They do more bait and switch then Circuit city. Every time I get an email from them with some great deal on computer hardware, they NEVER have it in the store. Ever. I don’t care if you’re the first person there when they open up in the morning, they always say that the guy before you bought the last one of whatever super deal they had at the time. Today was different however. I got to Microcenter today, and not only did they not have either of the hard drives they offered up in a special deal, but the lady told me that they’ve been out of them for weeks!

Umm…what? I just got this email this morning! How are they out of them for weeks??

Oh, I know, they never fucking had them to begin with, they just use their email mailer to lure you in. If they had told me what they always tell me, that they just sold out before I got there, I wouldn’t be this pissed off about it. However, since they flat out told me that they have been out for weeks, and NEVER had these around for this price, fuck them.

Here is their ad for a 500gb external HD for $79.99 after MIR:

I get there and was told that they don’t have that drive, or the 250gb for $29.99 after MIR, both that they advertised this morning. I was also told that I was wrong, and that they haven’t sent out a mailer since the 4th. That’s when I took out my smartphone, connected to my gmail, and showed that fucking idiot the mailer from this morning. Eventually she found the mailer, but still insisted that they don’t have the drive. Just like every other time, Microcenter has a great deal on something and doesn’t come through with it. I’ve wasted countless trips to that shithole, and will never spend another dollar in that place. I’ll pay a premium anywhere else before I’ll go back there. Tell everyone you know. This place is a bunch of crooks. Fuck them.
