You must be related to the cashier. i.e. it took that "rocket scientist" 15m of my time to figure out that the cable was NOT full insertable, while trying for almost the entirety of those 15m to convince me that it was "fine" and that was how it was supposed to be when I clearly pointed out to him a properly inserted cable(demo unit), and obvious lack of contact in defective unit via no LED lit in charger cable ffs!
She wasn't researching crap. She was clearly reading some book as I did have a brief look at what she had on it when she put it down for 5s to answer a question that I had asked.
[EDIT]
This is ALL AFTER MUCH BETTER cs/sales experiences w/Sears, Staples, Bed Bath & Beyond, Kmart, Walmart & Borders B&N ranks dead at the bottom IMNHO in all areas ATM or at least the nearby store does, and seeing that the next closest one that I used to go to before they opened the close one is 25m away... I guess that I should've just bought it from a Walmart or Worst Buy...
[/EDIT]
Christ! B&N fanbois already... this is ridiculous.

Wow, angry much?
Deleted my response. Not worth it.
As for the main topic of this thread, I still suspect the units are shipped from their distribution centers in their massive semis with no care how they come out. Insurance covers in store damages and they'll just write them off anyways.
