I'm quite happy to have a CostCo in Waltham. They treat their employees well. So well, in fact, that when a small group of employees at the local CostCo shared in a giant Lotto prize, half of them decided to keep working at CostCo. If you need the quantities that they sell in, their quality is first-rate and the prices are very good. Buying electronics at CostCo is an excellent proposition, because they have a liberal return policy and, as previously mentioned, good prices. The employees don't know much about the televisions and computers, but they also don't pretend to be experts on them, the way that Best Buy salescritters do. They never push for an extended warranty. Want to run Linux on a laptop you buy there? Go ahead. Want to return it because there's a hardware defect? Go right ahead. It's not Walmart. -dsr- _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.blu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
