I actually think it is cool to see Best Buy move in that direction. When I was much younger in Cincinnati, there was a family owned chain that sold appliances, music & video (i.e. LPs, cassettes, & audio equipment--including some of the best high end gear), toys, hardware--you name it. Plus they carried Rickenbackers, Mutron stuff, PA gear. Going even further back, there was a jewelry store that carried all guitar & amp lines & was for a while THE place to go if your were a working musician. I go to GC to pick up on trade-ins & maybe some blow-out sale items--but I'm always amazed at how hard the salesguys are trying to ram the lower end lines down your throat.
