Tv but were stunned when they open the box and found the screen was cracked. The tv didnt work at all yet the store wouldnt take it back. Michael finney has a warning about the policy. Lizzy and her husband moved from brazil to the bay area. My husband had a job opportunity here. The couple was in temporary housing, shopping for furniture, when they saw a great deal from best buy. It was 58inch l. E. D. Tv from panasonic. The tv was marked down from 1,400 to 1,000, so they bought one. However, they left the tv packed in the box until they could move into their permanent home three weeks later. Little did they know that would be a big mistake. When we moved into this house, we had the tv out. When they finally pulled the tv out of the box, they were stunned at what they found. The l. E. D. Screen was all cracked. We looked at each other and said, no. But it was. Lizzy is showing us where the screen was broken. When they turn the tv on, here is what they saw. A huge liquidy blob in the middle. A white patch on the side and an icon, but no picture. Nobody can imagine that you will open a brand new tv box and then your tv, its all damaged. Their next surprise came when they tried to return the tv to best buy. The guy said, im sorry, but we cannot take the tv back. Best buy has a 15day return policy. The couple had purchased the tv 20 days earlier. Unfortunately they didnt open the box soon enough. We were so frustrating and we know it wasnt our fault. Panasonic wouldnt take the tv back either saying it wasnt responsible for a damaged screen. So we just said, okay, we spent 1,000. 1,000 that we put in the garbage. Then someone told them about 7 on your side. We already watch it many times during the news, but we had no idea that we were eligible to participate. Of course, they are eligible and the couple did contact me. Thats when magic started happening. We contacted best buy and explained the couples dilemma. This time their surprise was a nice one. I personally dont know what magic 7 on your side did, but two days after that, somebody from best buy called us best buy took back the broken tv after all and replaced it with a brand new one. Lizzy said they dont have anything like 7 on your side in brazil. I couldnt believe that this thing was real, but now im proof of it. It really does magic best buy declined to provide a statement for the story except to say it has replaced the cracked tv with a new one of the exact same model. Now i would like to thank best buy for helping this couple in such a big way. So what is your takeaway . Open your boxes. Make sure the products are in good working order before the return period expires. Im michael finney, 7 on your side. Good advice.
