They steal it, from you.
If I could give you guys a zero I would! First of all your selection sucks and second of all your cashier Michael Pringleton is a scammer! He talks for 10 minutes trying to sell you the FYE discount card then as many times as you say no, he tells you to sign for the receipt which actually signs you up for the card in which you now have to call and get the run around to cancel! Classy FYE, CLASSY
the selection's wide & the store is visually appealing.
i like pink floyd, who doesn't? i like the albums, the artwork, the music, the message, all of it. so naturally as a fan i want to hold the content packaged in my hand in a way that allows me to pass down the music to my children, appreciate the albums artwork, and lastly being unable to afford a whole new car radio just so i can plug in an aux cord. so what do pink floyd fans like me with a shitty 94 toyota that only plays CD's do to get their musical fix? we buy CDs. there aren't many of us left but FYE is the conquerer of that exact dying niche market. well that and all the other useless crap they plaster the walls of that glorified poster/toy store with.
With the market quickly depleting from newer technologies or people simply not being interested in CD's anymore, you would imagine the corporate big wigs at FYE are panicking doing anything and everything they can to keep this market alive for as long as possible making employees goes through customer satisfaction seminars, people pleasing skills, and corporate meetings that illustrate just how important maintaining the niche market is and how they can keep older content sharing technology alive by satisfying customers, hiring know hows and can dos, and generally sharing interest in all that stuff. while what they can do to save themselves from being absorbed in todays competitive market is on the table for discussion i'll tell you this, the store experience should be better for the expected niche shopper and its not because they aren't interested in creating a valued customer who wants to come back through any real or meaningful shopping experience. they would rather create loyal customers by force, and bind you to something you cannot question or even notice is a problem until it matters; an auto-charging computer program.
How a pink floyd CD ended up costing me $200 over the course of 6 months because FYE intentionally misleads consumers.
the account i had used at the time to make the purchase was not very active and i kept the balance low while negligently paying attention to it. because of the accounts low balance and my ignorance of this i was overdraft charged several times for months. i lost over 200$ to this one CD because of a shifty loophole.
it starts in line when you least expect it. trying to buy your things and just leave. people in a rush behind you. its not a place you typically want to spend leisurely time in, little do you know thats all part of the plan... alright its your turn now. the cashier will ask you if you want to be a part of a rewards program. much like a grocery store! after i persisted i didn't want it, the cashier persisted that indeed i actually did! and that stupid me didn't previously realize what a steal an immediate $2.00 discount was! in an attempt to just leave i said ok just give me the discount and and did! neat! she mumbled something that sounded like a dangerous medicine commercials side affects disclaimer and asked for my signature. signing it with the pre-notion my signature was required to fulfill the purchase i didn't think at the time that i was signing away the right to charge my card $12.00 a month every month FOREVER so i can indulge in all of FYE's important weekly deals(keep in mind i enter FYE maybe twice a year). oh the deals! the deals!!!!!
Today, unfortunately i found out how FYE has been able to stay competitive in the modern age of downloading and streaming music, movies, and content.
now i never write reviews. ever. so please take into consideration that i made this review as pure warning to anyone who accidentally wanders into an FYE or happens to temporarily think its a good idea and was lucky enough to come across this before stepping foot into that money trap.
