They bragged daily how the Florida Mall Geek Squad did more repairs than any other Geek Squad. Yeah.... "we love to rip tourist off " should have been their slogan

I stole so many customers from Geek Squad when I was at Staples. They were half a mile from us. Across the bridge and other side of the road. The bridge was just over a highway, so not long. See attached picture.

@IRJ I did a very, very short stint at a Radio Shack part time. It was very similar, and I left after they were able to rotate more people in. I got a kick out of being able to see their back-end systems and ERP though. Retail markups are ridiculous.

Computers lose money though. It's the accessories that make money.

Oh totally! I can't remember it's been forever, but there was some sort of system in place for accessories; think it was 3 to 1? You only got a certain percentage of your sales commission on a standalone item if you didn't sell something around 2-3 accessories with it. I.e. phones, tablets, cameras, etc.

@MattKing Oh, retail is crazy mark-ups. I used to work in Sales for a company that manages most of the college campus bookstore nation wide. 50-60% markup on textbooks. Making the poor - poorer.

Alright, I have never stolen anything.
Except a few of my college books back in the day.
Sorry mom.

The geeksquad is a joke. I am glad you were able to steal some customers
