The Dulles Landing shopping center is doing well, with the stores opening this summer, including Walmart (opening July 1st). I wonder, though, could a Best Buy open? Seems like a great location for BB.

First off, while Walmart will stock a good bit of electronics, they need something a bit more. They could use a broader selection of computers/tablets/phones, video games/media, and of course, appliances. Second, the residents of southern Loudoun are traveling miles, through traffic to the nearest Best Buy (in Fair Lakes or Reston), and the disappearance of RadioShack isn't making it any better (even if there might have been none in between those areas). If Dulles Landing had a Best Buy, the people could get their electronics connection quicker and easier. Third, and last, Best Buy hasn't been doing so well in recent years. You know how they closed 50 stores in 2012 and some more in this time? Well, Best Buy does not have too much competition around here, so I expect it to do well, and mean some recovery for Best Buy (even though they have not opened any new stores in a while, and this is only one location).

In this site plan of Dulles Landing (http://www.dulleslanding.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/2015-DullesLandingSitePlan-012015.pdf), the theater seems pretty useless (as there is one in Brambleton and there is one planned in Avonlea), and it's a pretty odd location as well. Best Buy can take about 3/4ths of the space, or just go full-on with the store. If they chose to split some space up, they can lease it out to some other retailer, of course.

Now, most of you might say that Best Buy's sucking too much (either in their economic doing or their customer service), but what? We're here for the electronics.

I think Best Buy is struggling in general. Target was supposed to go in there originally, but they've also been struggling and have backed out.

Target is planned at Arcola Center next door, and is still in the plans. Was supposed to be a SuperTarget at one point (too bad they don't really build these anymore).

Best Buy could, maybe, bump back a little and open doors here? They were planned at Dulles Landing, and could take over that useless "theatre" in the center plans.

I'm kinda surprised there isn't already a BB out there, or at least, plans for one. What's the closest one, Leesburg? Sterling? Reston?

The closest ones are in Fair Lakes, Reston, and maybe Sterling/Manassas/Gainesville/Leesburg to a small extent.

The Dulles Landing center is just the beginning for big-box retail in southeastern Loudoun. There is a Home Depot, but it was basically the first when opened back in 2008.

A number of years ago, I used to love Best Buy. However, after they redecorated their stores a few years ago, I discovered that it is much cheaper to buy what I need off the internet than to run to Best Buy for it like I used to. For instance, I needed a High Speed USB/A to B printer cable and wanted one with the gold-plating on the connector ends with emf interference protection built in. I found one with the right length on the internet for around $3-4.00, but as I needed it that day, I thought I would just bop over to Best Buy and have it in an hour to hook up a new printer. Imagine my astonishment when I found that they only carried the one or two cheap ones with the regular non-gold metal but they were charging $29.00 for one!!! I mentioned this, that they are $6.00 via the internet to one of the store personnel, who just shrugged. I haven't returned to Best Buy since--I just order from the internet. Best buy is noted to have the cheaper prices on their internet site, so this might just be price gouging in this particular NoVa store because it is in Northern Virginia and they can find people who don't care about the price of anything shopping here.

What did you expect the employee to do? They don't set the prices.

There was a blonde chick named sonny that worked their and she gave all the darker guys head.
