Wrong. I returned a best buy purchase on eBay in store this past Friday.
My local store told me they couldn't do it. They said they had no way of processing the refund since I made the payment to ebay, not to Best Buy.

Should I have just gone through the refund process online with ebay and then 'store drop off' would've been an option?

They need to look up other vendor in the register and type in the eBay order number with the dashes & any store can refund you. Many employees, even managers, don't know how.

I had chosen the free expedited free shipping option to have this laptop delivered to me. I thought they were going to use something like UPS 2 day shipping for this. I didn't realize that instead they used Shipt to handle expedited shipping for orders. This laptop was supposed to be delivered this past Saturday, but I never received it and it somehow got returned by Shipt.

The package has been returned.Sun, Dec 11, 5:05 a.m.
Your package is on its way.Sat, Dec 10, 4:03 p.m.
The shopper has arrived for pickup.Sat, Dec 10, 3:53 p.m.
A shopper has been assigned.Sat, Dec 10, 11:09 a.m.

The strange thing is that according to this, the Shipt delivery driver picked up the item Saturday afternoon (presumably from a local store), but then they returned the item very early Sunday morning before the store even opened? That doesn't make sense to me.

I re-ordered the laptop yesterday (Sunday) and this time chose the free standard shipping option, which is supposed to deliver the item a day later than the expedited shipping option. Hopefully standard shipping uses the post office or UPS to delivery instead of Shipt.

Just wanted to give a heads up about BB contracting out to Shipt for their expedited shipping. It doesn't look like a reliable delivery service, and it seems there's some expectation to provide cash tips to their delivery drivers.

I've had about 5-7 orders from BB delivered by Shipt. When it gives me the option for same day delivery. Here on the island of Oahu. It's always delivered by Shipt before 8pm. Even Target does it but not for free.

Is there a reason when you look at the picture of it compared to the touchscreen one, the build at the bottom of the laptop looks different? I thought someone mentioned the only difference is one is touchscreen and the other isn't?


But is the touchscreen 250 nits and the nontouchscreen 170 nits or are they the same?

Have done this in store before? My package is unopened; can I just refuse it and send it back?

I finally got around to picking up my order at BB and I directly compared it to another 250 nit screen I have on a Lenovo 5. This computer is 250 nits. What I think is throwing people off is that it is a matte screen, which does make it look a little dimmer. Glossy screens look more vivid because they are well...glossy...and if you are used to glossy screens on phones and tablets you may not like this screen.

Also, it doesn't have great viewing angles which is both a pro and con.

Thanks. Well I am used to matte screens and not a fan of glossy screen. So does the touchscreen one have better viewing angles?


Anyone bought both the touchscreen and nontouchscreen can give their opinion? Also why does the build of it in the picture look a bit different in the bottom of each laptop? Notice how the nontouch one looks different at the bottom when comparing the pictures?

The non touchscreen one (Model C425) has plastic base, while the touchscreen one (model C434) has aluminium base. Check the review of this model from Chromeunboxed, he compares this non-touchscreen model vs the touchscreen model which was released first.

Asus has two 14" touch screen models out there. The C434 gets great reviews but the C433 doesn't. The C433 is the one that's tough to open and has the plastic bendable keyboard. I purchased a C433 for $179.00 and returned it pretty quick.

Try a different best buy location. I tried to cancel order since ebay didn't have free return shipping. However, they shipped the product and asked me to return to any nearby store via email.

Is the Model: C425TA the same as the C434? Only reason I asked it when I set it up. I got this msg from google. It was sent to my google email.

C434 is the Touchscreen flip version which was released first. C425 is the non-touchscreen version that was released later.
