|  Best Buy or Amazon.com - Saitek Eclipse II howdy folks I've been thinking about getting the Eclipse II. Best Buy has a new sale for it for $50 with tax making it $53. I could buy it from Amazon, at $55, straight from Amazon with their free shipping. From a consumer standpoint, would you guys stay away from BB as much as possible? I like going there to look at things but not really buy, but I do occasionally. I prefer online...and free ship to your door, you really can't beat that.  So, what do you think? I was going to buy at BB...but may just stick with Amazon.

| Re: Best Buy or Amazon.com - Saitek Eclipse II Personally if the price is close im going to buy from a brick and mortar just because its a LOT easier to return it to a store than mail it back. Also theres that instant gratification thing.

| Re: Best Buy or Amazon.com - Saitek Eclipse II If the brick and mortar price is close to online I'll usually just jump in the car and go and get it. I hate waiting that 3-4 days for stuff and it's much easier to return something at a store. I'm not a big fan of the BBY but if the price is good I'll shop there without a problem.
