  • bullshit i wrked there they make profit on their bullshit warranties

  • how he has a ps3 when it wast even out when this happen?and at the begining microsoft only gave u 90 days of warranty

  • the employee had a ps 3.

  • All the people saying that he's scamming them with the extended warranty, keep this in mind.

    He advised them not to buy it. He told them freely about the problem and told them not to buy if, but said that if they really wanted to protect their $500 to get the plan.

    What company would actually turn away business like that?

  • That's some serious hustlin'.

  • if best buy protection plan is a scam..How did they spend 425 million dollars last year in just computer....People just think when you buy a product nothing is ever going go wrong with it...Most ppl that get it because they had it one point and it worked out...Ive seen dozen of cases where this Protection plan was offered and customer refused two weeks later comes with the computer with a crack screen and gets mad because they didn't get the plan.the real question is can you buy a product twice?

  • people commenting should really read up on things and understand what best buy is actually offering its customer and not just bash it because u dont fully understand the benefits of the PSP/PRP (Now called Geek Squad Black Tie Protection).

  • Youtube___ Best Buy Employee gets Crunk

  • NEVER buy a warranty from Best Buy/Futureshop - former employee

  • whatever dude, this guy is trying to sell you on the warranty, thats how they make there money. XBOX gives a 3 year warranty. The only thing your paying for with Best Buy is that you return it and get a new one right there.

  • whatever dude, this guy is trying to sell you on the warrenty, thats how they make there money. XBOX gives a 3 year warrenty. The only thing your paying for with Best Buy is that you return it and get a new one right there.

  • @2milehigh at the time i dont think microsoft did the 3 year one

  • @TranceMikebrown hahahah I didn't even check the date of the video before commenting, thanks for the heads up hahaha

  • @IGetSikWitIt lol it doesn't matter if you lay the ps3 on it's side or straight up, it won't mess up your games! too bad you can't say the same thing about the 360! lol

  • WTF! $500+? pssh and these 360 fanboys say that the ps3 is expensive, yeah right! btw "the first day we set it up, it scratched the games and another one froze" lol wow, epic fail! 360 sucks! PS3 FTW!

  • @quackinator1 PS3 Fanboy

  • @carreon0425 lol what's your point 360 fanboy?

  • @quackinator1 nah im not a 360 fanboy im a all console lover :) i love all consoles but sadly i only have xbox and wii i want a ps3 T.T

  • i wish he was there when i bought my first Crappy Xbox 360

  • @darkpiggh159 yeah i got a slimline ps2 christmas 2005 and it still works to this day

  • @BrianFalconsFan29 i know right LOLZ

  • They are still trying all they can to sell these warranties. I bought another 360 a few weeks ago & they tried this same shit. I had to tell the bitch, listen I can buy it here or somewhere else, but I'm not buying an extended warranty. Clark Howard says the only thing you should buy a warranty for are things with combustible engines. Not to mention Microsoft will extend the warranty to 3 yrs for issues that they know are a problem.

  • this is good... cuz u can always lie n say ur xbox 360 broken... and they will give u a new one free.. if u get that warrenty..

  • This is a Prime reason WHY the Xbox 3 FIX ME is trash.... this is around the launch date 2.. do ya self a favor.. get a ps3...

    : Ps1, Ps2, PsX, PSP, Ps3 Fanboy... thats right Suck it

  • Awesome dude. I just wish more ppl would be this friendly and honest instead of lying into your face.

  • lmao

  • they fixed them i am not a fanboy i have both sytems they are both good but just for the uodate they are fixed they reduced the problems

  • Obviously a PS2 Fanboy!

  • wow you all are stupid yes MS covers you for 3 years on RROD but thats all the 3 years covers one year if ur optical drive fails 90 days on controllers and cables its the exact same for sony and nintendo, as where best buys service plan covers for 2 or three years on everything but physical and water damage unless your in the states and have the black tie protection and yes that includes controllers so thinjk and maybe do research before you sound like a dumbass

  • wow you all are stupid yes MS covers you for 3 years on RROD but thats all the 3 years covers one year if ur optical drive fails 90 days on controllers and cables its the exact same for sony and nintendo, as where best buys service plan covers for 2 or three years on everything but physical and water damage unless your in the states and have the black tie protection and yes that includes controllers so thinjk and maybe do research before you sound like a dumbass

  • the really funny thing is that microsoft will warranty any of the original launch xboxes for 3 YEARS if it has rrod....idiots. Anyone who buys an extended warranty from best buy or anywhere else is an idiot...also they gave me the same speech about the ps3...almost verbatim...funny what they will tell you just to make an extra dollar...

  • @Shamespear ms warranty is shit bro, ONLY covers rrod, best buy covers overheating, power surges, if your tray gets stuck. and ms takes forever to mail back to you...and of course its not going to cover physical dmg, that would just be neglecting you stuff...and you can swap controllers as much as you want...most common thing with all video game systems(not just next gen) directional sticks and triggers go out fast.

  • Lol, this guy is a Best Buy tool. He's trying to get people to buy their warranty plan. Just like the Best Buy dumbass who tried to sell me a $100 HDMI cable, and the idiot who tried to tell me that 720p was not hi def. I told the guy to go fuck himself on the HDMI cable.

  • @larrym5150 i work there and i bought one on my laptop and already broke the screen, i basically saved 500-700 dollars because of the repairs and only spent 100 for the one year of accidents...

  • when it comes to the warranty its worth every penny trust me. but the HDMI cable is a rip off

  • dude thier warrenty is awsome

  • my friend has 360 and has mw2 and his xbox fuck up the game only because he put the xbox the wrong way and move the system while it was running if you put the xbox horizontal that can never happen to the cd or game peace me out

  • exact same thing happened to me, and now my xbox has red ring of death and its not under warranty cuz we opened it up, so now i gotta buy a new xbox and a new mw2

  • thats sucks bro I may get ps3 and make my own team but I want 360 cuz my bf's have 360 I want it so bad but red ring of death is stopping ms says they fix it but I don't beleved them peace out

  • plus this guy is a dick you can return the 360 3 years warrtery than 1 year for sony peace out

  • @young126money yea u know why cuz the 360 is going to break so thats why they give them 3years

  • @ReAmemiyaFREAK that sucks:(

  • This guy can sell a bar of soap to a Polish guy!

  • @AU42Assassin your gay jokes make no sense well done -.-

  • Your comment makes no sense.

  • your face makes no sense.

  • @ klopek28. Based on your last name you are a polish guy so that is why you got offended when I said this guy can sell a bar of soap to a Polish person. You know you guys stink like shit!

  • we need more guys like this rather than the salesman who piles up all the offers and shit and claims he "owns one himself at home and is very satisfied"

  • Even though this is from 2005, it still makes me laugh. This guy was so sure the 360 would fail, lol.

  • HE IS FUCKIN GAY!!!

  • this best buy employee is a great salesman.

  • he could sell snow to an eskimo LOL!

  • @spakey1983

    i heard he sold water to a well

  • I wonder if this is an act. if its real i wonder if the employee got fired for not selling a product. warning customers

  • he did sell them the 360 he made more money by getting them to buy the warranty (I)

  • moron, this video was released before PS3 came out.

  • yea me too! my first 2002 version screwed up and now i have a 2009 system and microsoft told me that it is now red ring free. for good a new peice of software or hardware idk but i am just glad its over.

  • all he was doin was trying to get the to buy the 2 or 3 yr warranty

  • Are you serious? Its a line for Xbox 360s. The PS3 wasn't even out for another year. Yes you're right, I'm sure he was trying to make them wait another year before purchasing a nextgen console. Next time, pay attention to the date of the video posting before you open your mouth.

  • in case you could not read, this is from smash my xbox, which is based around when the xbox first came out, which you said yourself, and i quote "the old once did mess up a lot" i believe you meant to say ones, but why wouldn't you pay extra to get a brand new one instantly. I'm not even trying to hate on the xbox 360, i have a ps3, and it has problems all the time, like the fact that i constantly have to reconnect to my wireless network, and it is so loud and runs hot, but i still protect it

  • it's ok 360 fanboys... im sure u can afford a ps3 eventually. good luck :p

  • Well, they are both the same price now, so good job on trying to get their hopes up...tool

  • there the same price u dum fucking retard

  • yea now they are... might wanna check the dates of posts. just sayin :p either way im more happy playing my PC rig now a days. well... until gran turismo and FF VIII Versus exclusive come out :D cant wait! :P

  • there isnt a fucking final fantasy VIII versus.

  • yes there is, there's a final fantasy that is PS3 only and then there is one that'll be released on both consoles. see for yourself...

    go on google and type in final fantasy versus XIII

    and then type in the regular Final Fantasy XIII....

    if u didnt know there where two comming out than it's a lil hard to believe that ur a gamer...

  • Yeah, I know, but in your original post you said VIII, not XIII.

  • its hard to believe your a real gamer if you didn't know there are 3 coming out final fantasy xiii, final fantasy versus xiii, and final fantasy agito xiii. so you can't really talk

  • no sh!t... agito is for PSP... i was talkin about the ps3 exclusive..

  • ps3 exclusive actually its online only

  • No, there is XIII versus, not VIII versus.

  • yeah i study the hell out of roman numerals ya know

  • uhh no his boss prob gave him a high five after this. he was selling them a warranty just so they would pay extra to best buy for the 360. he was making them paranoid so they would go for the full coverage only available at best buy ;)

  • best buy employees don't sell on commission, we actually try to help the customers, or at least some of us do. also didn't the xbox 360 have like a 33% chance of rrod? so wouldn't it be smart to lay down a good $50 so you wouldn't need to spend another $300. i got the service plan on my rock band kit, and have already used it twice. it's called protecting your assets. would you drive a car uninsured?

  • wow look at the lies just to sell the warranty

    the dvd froze because he had his greacy hands on it

  • well then the 32 % fail rate of people had greacy hands lolololololololololololololo

  • hes selling warranty id say the same if i work there cos id get commisiuon for selling insurance r u dumb hes bullshitting ive had my xbox 4 years and no problems whatso ever

  • LOL Best Buy and Futureshop staff would give you this plan option even if the XBOX 360's never broke down and were flawless in design. Also Microsoft extended the warranty of all the old machines that had the design flaw. So basically if you buy the product plan there's a good chunk of change down the drain. Truth is these places try to sell this product plan on almost everything they sell.

  • @DarthRic1979 Best Buy also uses a similar plan with their laptops and notebooks through that geek squad BS. I have bought 2 laptops from them which have been covered through said plan all of which had malfunctioning drives within less than 6 months.

  • @DarthRic1979 The majority of the stuff covered in the extended warranty they sell are stuff that don't ever breaks.... so really, it's a scam.

  • you know, i got mine last christmas, and im glad i did

    i know its late and current gen is almost over

    BUT

    i pretty much got my xbox now that they arent as problematic as bfore =)

    yay xbox!

  • it's not almost over. they aren't planning to come out with another system for 2-4 years, so it's all good.

  • total bs

  • this is bs and thye just trying to sell you there bs shit, never buy this shit its how they make ALL there money.

  • i have xbox360 for two years and nothing have happend exept for ruining my gta 4 disks . I had already 4 gta 4 so yeah i dont understand why my xbox 360 hates gta 4

  • so glad i have both XD

  • how much did your parents pay for them

  • xbox in christmas of 05 and ps3 in christmas of 08 both were after my dad came back from iraq so we had extra money 360 was 300 ps3 300 or 400 forgot

  • HAHA im so glad i didnt buy any of these overpriced peices of shit!

  • you ps3 fags need yo get a life no one asked you fruits about your forman grills

  • says the xbox fanboy no one was even dissing xbox lol get a job

  • anyway faget wholives with his mom ihappen to have a great job , and probably make more money than you in a month than you do in a year so learn who ur talking 2 before u say shit alright fag

  • i don't live with my mom i live with my father my mother died when i was 4 and I'm 16. I'm not a 'faggot' if that what you were trying to spell and I don't really care about money I'm not really into being that shallow

  • I hate when employees do that kind of shit just to "try" and get you to buy the warrenty. Sure this was from back in 2005 but still. Wouldn't waste my money on a 360 still just cause of how it's built and the fail rate it still has ( people that say it's as low the PS3 rate is full of shit btw )

  • But now everyone knows how bad RROD is. If you knew would you still take the Extended warranty? because you prob go through like 5-7 Xboxs

  • hahaha, shit sucks

  • I've said that kinda thing load of times per day, I Work at staples n we do a "Complete Care" and my pitch is pretty much EXACTLY the same, about the 3 years an shit like that lol...

    Staples FTW

  • not gonna lie xbox 360 is built like shit but it has the games which is why i love it and plus i can use it as a footwarmer during the winter :P

  • wow LOL

  • hahah

  • that's awesome...LOL XD

  • hey game on and heat your feet when your cold what more could you want and also cook eggs :) someone actually has a vid of that on youtube lol

  • hey when it gets heated up u can also use it to iron your boxers.. i do so

  • best way to do that is rip off the shell of the 360 and inside is a metal casing for extra heavy duty heating ;)

  • dude i should probably make a video of me ironing my boxers with an xbox 360 lol

  • I know this is true I WOULD BUY THE extended warranty! lol

  • Bullshit asshole

  • 90 days? What in the hell is he talking about??? you get 1 year warranty...and then after the 1 year you get 2 more years of 3 rrod warranty.

    Best Buy Employees suck.

  • Comment removed

  • Look at the time and date stamp genius. Microsoft originally rolled out the xbox 360 with a 90 day warrnty.

  • kdady9 wow you are smart...NO SHIT.

  • more like:

    Sony Employee Warns Costumers About Xbox 360

  • or

    more like: best buy employee is a jackass and wants the people not to buy it so he can!

    lolol

  • dirty liar.

  • Microsoft makes crapy hardware. They should stick to software.

  • u dumb fuck, microsoft dont make it them selves, they have another manufactuer make the motherboards for them,microsoft writes the software for the 360, and its sold by microsoft, but the boards r made by an independent company u dumb fucking asshole

  • Sorry.... let me rephrase it...

    Microsoft Sells Shity Hardware... Lol Fucking Idiot

  • guys just chill.. lol anyway I agree my xbox broke for the most rarest reason ever. all xbox live related material had false updates and wouldn't launch cuz the false updates failed......like look that shit up on google u wont find it

  • i cant believe they had xbox360's in 2005.

  • every 5 years bro.. so far they've had new system

  • this video is fucking old i bought one for my cousin 2 weeks ago i got 3 year warranty

  • domoorgoto mr roboto

  • it had jus come out the fukin worker probably wanted 1 for himself haha jk

  • this looks like a ghetto ass best buy.. like someone's garage

  • um hes unselling. trying to scare them into buying warranty.

  • This guy is fucking retarded. He probably moved the console with the game in it.

  • All display models messing up too. Microsoft...for same. I wonder how long it will be until the Falcon chip starts messing up...hum.

  • this guy doesnt know anything... its the same box.. nope different drives the very first on they set out on was bad now benqs are great, this guy was just talking bad so they would dish out money for a warrenty from best buy

  • makes them want to pay the 50 dollars more on the warrantey douche bag

  • damn dune coons.

  • this guys a douche, lies i tell you lies!

  • No lies!

  • oh yes this is stupid but i gotta admit sometimes people always try to make you buy the more expensive stuff

  • haha this dude thinks he is mr best buy lmao

  • this ni99as just like hey i got a clipboard and i shall hold it

  • Perfect example of the kind of douche that works at Best Buy. Bullshitting and poor attitude. Scare people into buying shit they don't need.

  • xbox 360 and playstation sucks. superior is PC. call me ignorant gay dick head what ever i don't care i'm just telling the truth.

  • cause your so poor right

  • fucking lol'd. I spent over 2k (that's $2,000 for all the kids out there) on graphics card, mother board, CPU, overall computer. Xbox cost's about 400 bucks for the console and a controller, don't know about the play station, but I spent 2k on it already without buying a game, speakers, keyboard. now go to school, learn grammar and shut up

  • PS3 is the best... period

  • yeah ps3 is hands down a hell of a lot better..network is free, blu-ray, im wathcing you-tube on my ps3..great! fuck xbox i had the original one and it sucked and went out like dead min a nyear..360 is just a waste of money, much better off with the ps3.

  • your right dannyboy, i love waiting 20 minutes to play a shitty version of a multiplatform game on a ps3.

  • i worked at BB and they try to sell the Service plan, even though it's a ripoff...the managers force us to sell it because it's pure profit.

  • haha 360 sucks i have the ps3 and it hasnt done anything GO PS3!!

  • it hasnt done anything cuz you didnt put games in it

    You havent put games in it cuz there are no good ones for ps3

  • hahhahahah ps3 has better fucking games

  • nope

  • and 360 does? ha tell some games that arnt platformed somewhere else that i can only get on 360. EXCEPT the known, Fable and Halo3(not all said to be anyways), and that is not a FPS. FInd them for me and i 360 will be the winner. if a ps2 can make as much profit a year, as a 360 then im pretty sure, sony will always be great at consumer quality and satisfaction.

  • (S) = Series Blue Dragon (S) Banjo Kazooie Bomberman Castle Crashers Dead or Alive (S) Forza (S) Guilty Gear Kingdom Under Fire (S) Ninja Gaiden (S) Project Gotham (S) Star Ocean Beautiful Katamari (Haha I remember when this was a playstation exclusive now its not even on their lineup)
  • ~Shooters~

    (don't count these I guess cu your personal preference/discrimination/igno­rance won't allow it)

    Gears of War (S)

    Saints Row (S)

    Crackdown (S)

  • Not to mention games look better on the 360 cuz it 60 fps instead of 30 fps and 512 ram instead of 256 ram. And xbox live cost money cuz all the servers stay up forever and stay lag free.

    Oh and we have rumble (even though ps3 came out the controller they didnt put it in the games that were out before it.)

    40 GB ps3 are the only ones you can buy and they dont play ps2 games.

  • yea im pretty sure they do play PS2 games, being that i have one and have played my old ps2 games on it. The graphics definitley DO NOT look better on a 360, they're either the same or PS3 has better graphics. I cant wait until your Xbox gets its red ring of death (if it hasn't already) in the meantime i'll be watching some blurays on my PS3 which only cost 100$ more

  • no.

  • agreed

  • they now have 80 and 160gb

    which not to mention. you can expand your hard drive LIMITLESSLY!!!

    my friend has a terabyte. thats 1000gb just incase you are technologically impaired.

  • 1024

  • the 80gb is discontinued and the 160gb as announced for fall of 2008 but never came out ..... suck my perabyte nigga

  • we also got gears of war :)

  • dude 360 has way better games...

  • but ps3 has more exlusivs?.....and there good to

  • ps3 sucks i use to have a ps3 and broke 2 days later unlike ps3 xbox has more and better exclusives

  • no, ps3 has more exclusives. xbox ports their shit to computer also. so, any game i want my pc can take. the only exclusives that i have bought for 360 are FABLE2, crackdown, and dead or alive. other than that. no other game is worth money to buy.

  • ur a dick want to know why all 360 exclusives are on pc its becuase its owned by microsoft dick and i can think of hundreds of exclusives already

  • make a list. then make a list of ps3. only the games that are microsoft x studios are there because of that. the rest are there because they were created for pc then ported. name those exclusives then. except halo 3 and fable.

  • gears of war?

  • its ported on pc.

  • I have had 3 Xbox's because i have anger issues and i take it out of them.

  • same and now mines freezing

  • Lol the 3 year extended warranty Sounds Real Good back then lolz

  • full of crap, lol

  • 73,999th view xP

  • dude the core and narmal are so much different.. this guy is full of crap

  • this guy is full of crap

  • what a load of crap!!I fell for the insurance thing at best buy 1 time on a cell phone,tried to bring it back and they wouldent exchange it claiming that it was a natural cause,why the speaker went out!!what a joke best buy is

  • In the new best buy mobile cell phone department they will repair your phone under the manufacturers warranty if you buy it at best buy(as long as its still under warranty of course) their old service plans before best buy mobile were crap on cell phones, the new ones arn't. How do I know? I work there...
