You do realize best buy also has a "marketplace"?

I'm unable to find any evidence of this on the U.S. website, and nothing but a few links to Canadian resources otherwise.

You're right, it seems to be specific to the .ca website.

I was really panicked for a second. Complete denial, skipped straight to the anger phase. Best Buy has honestly been such a refreshing experience the last few years, now that Newegg is less and less an option.

It's one of the few stores I still physically visit just to browse, with no specific purchasing goal in mind. It's how I ended up with a Philips Hues light setup and I'm actually very happy with it.
