on 6/8/15I would write a letter to your state's attorney general. There are laws regarding taking advantage of senior citizens. I would specifically ask for documentation from Best Buy in which your grandmother gave them permission to recycle her 18 month old computer. If they cannot produce that document they may be in very big trouble with the state's attorney general. I would also write the BBB and contact your public officials. This I think would be paramount to theft if your grandmother did not give them permission to recycle her computer. On the flip side of things, ASUS is a very good machine. My son is a computer scientist and swears by ASUS. I have three ASUS machines one of which is over 5 years old and it is a workhorse. Unless something significant happens in the ASUS business world, I will continue to buy ASUS!
I am appalled at how your grandmother was railroaded. Customers just cannot trust anyone anymore. Women and the elderly are easy targets to these thieves. The almighty profit god is pervasive. File a formal complaint - is a good idea.
I think this is outrageous! Best buy needs to be held accountable! I suggest you file a formal complaint with consumer affairs. They are helpful. Good luck. I'm like you I will NEVER go to best buy again.
