Ive been buying fair condition items from Best Buy for over a decade and I was told by their manager when I started it would maybe missing accessories but would always include REQUIRED accessories to make it function.
You can sell a laptop that won't turn on as functional without the 200w power brick to make it turn on? Not what I was told those many years ago by the nice employees I'd spoken with.
Ended up going up there myself and stuck around until they found the power cord that they had forgotten to include. I know it's confusing since some companies like apple don't include usb chargers, but I confirmed in the future if Fair meant it included required cords and was told 'it should be included if it's required, and if not they'd accept a return."
So, if you got a laptop and it didn't have the power cord, maybe drive up to your best buy it came from and see if they have it.
After it's all said and done, I love this laptop. Feels quality, runs quiet and the screen looks great. Wish it were 144hz refresh and I wish it had 16gb soldered to the board instead of 8gb. Other than that, it's perfect. And for the price + hassle time, it feels worth it.
Seriously, Best Buy should make it possible for their call center to reach out to a local manager. It probably wouldn't come up that much, but for some little stuff like this, it'd have really improved the service experience. I'm happy with the outcome, but I can't help but appreciate my Microcenter even more now.
Super pleased Bestbuy found the power supply, since it looks hard to source online. Seems the -H this takes is not the same as the -D version everyone is selling online according to a frustrated redditor.
Glad it all worked out, and I'd urge people who might have this deal in their area to make sure you get the power brick if you can.
Which stick of ram did you go with, if you dont mind me asking?
This laptop I picked up from the store and is like new never used. Got in OEM box with factory seal still on. So it is hit or miss with open box items at BB

Might get the urge to add more ram some time.
