I called BestBuy to ask why they hadn't considered selling to people with Best Buy accounts, as suggested several times here, and other places. The Customer Service rep said scalpers (using bots) would get 100% of the cards that way. I asked if it could be a lottery, tied to Best Buy accounts. He said 100% of the cards would end up in the hands of bot wielding scalpers, with this measure. I suggested narrowing the field to Best Buy Elite or Elite Plus members, because that would only include customers that had spent $1000 or $3500 with Best Buy, already. He insisted that the same scenario would occur. When I said "all of these scalpers are Best Buy Elite members?" he confirmed multiple times that not only are all of the scalpers Elite Members, they also have bots, and that Best Buy should NOT be loyal to Elite members, because of this. I guess loyalty to your best customers is not a thing. I used to be willing to spend a little more to buy things from my local brick-and-mortar store, in order to support them, but it looks like they are not loyal to anything.
