Worse then that, last time I was shopping there I noticed that the VGA cable I was looking for was about $40 more than it should have been (apparantly because it had gold tips which help prevent corrosion, as if my computer is on a submarine). I asked the associate for the cheaper version, and he said that he could order it for me but that they didn't carry it in store.

I assume the strategy here is to get people like me to just buy the damned expensive cable because I want it now. Instead, I went to OfficeMax and found it for $40 less.

I won't be sad to see them go out of business.
