I knew they did what they could to make you buy stupid overprices extras, but outright lying, no wonder people rather buy online.

And remind us again what happened to CompUSA?
This is why I couldn't be a sales person. Sorry to hear about this. My only comment about this is however is that you should have gotten input from a manager, even if you had to throw something at one of them and MADE one of them make the decision as you knew that you were headed for trouble. Even if they had written you up, it would have been on their instructions and I really doubt that a manager would write up an employee for doing what they said because in effect they'd be writing themselves up and more than likely they'd have just let it go.
Over the years I've found that when you're a peon you have to find the right balance of asking permission and forgiveness. It sucks and in the end all it is a game but its critical to working in corporate America and having some peace and keeping a job.
I'm not giving you any grief, just some friendly advice and support. Anyone that's worked for a while has been in a similar spot.
Stfu you man child, jesus. Then, grow up and join the mature adult world after you've finished stfu-ing. You voting with your dollars has nothing to do with you going into a store where you know its policy to sell you as much crap as they can and being an asshole to the workers who are simply working for a paycheck.
Also, No One Cares About You You Are Not Special.
If I have to come back in here one more time, this thread is getting closed.
I don't see what's wrong with the posts since you last came here. They look reasonable to me. At least you should point out specific posts that you don't like.

I've bought two laptops from my BB and they didn't even try to sell me "extras" (except the extended warranty).
One was out of stock, so they gladly had another store hold it for me.
I'm starting to think I'm just really, really lucky when it comes to BB.
The attitude displayed by some people who are either present or former retail sales people toward the customer is simply appalling. You act as if the customer were the enemy. The customer is the entire reason you have a job. The old saying "Fool me once shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me" still applies. You might "make your numbers" one time by shafting a customer, but there's a good chance you will never make a repeat sale with that customer. Not only that but your bad behaviour, no matter who tells you to do so, has the chance of driving the customer permanently away from the entire chain. All this just more proof of a business culture in the US that is corrupt and broken from the very top, to the very bottom. If you want proof as to why banks, investment firms, mortgage companies, etc are failing, it's dishonesty like this on a macro scale. Nothing matter but "making the numbers".
No wonder B&M sales are falling while online sales are rising.
PS, read my sig.
Pretending something isn't in stock so you don't lose money is not a scam.
I went back a few months ago to my old store, and it was just depressing how far it's fallen since I was there nearly 10 years ago now. A sad statement of how a company goes for the short-term dollar and loses long-term customers.

Well, that's exactly what the internet is these days. The best price, but nobody to help you in your purchase.

If you've never worked retail you have no fucking clue as to how this shit goes down.
What are you talking about?
Please show me in this thread where I said I was disrespectful the the workers.
Then go back and read the rules because your name calling is not appreciated .
Please don't kid yourself........its no big secret what goes on ....I never worked retail but plenty of my less than "intelligent" friends did.
Here is where you set your agenda. Now kindly shut your trolling mouth and get the hell out of the thread.
If you don't like lying to people, don't work in a job where your manager makes you lie to people or else you get fired.
If you don't like lying to people, but do it anyways to keep your job, that makes you no better than your manager so do not expect to get treated any better.
