A: The agent will ensure that all wires and cables are neatly dressed and will use wire ties when necessary.- A: Everett, I got a new Sony receiver for Christmas, and two had 2 Best Buy Geek Squad members, Giovanni and Steve, install it. They were here for about an hour, and it cost $129.99. They hooked everything up, cleaned up their mess, and took the old Pioneer receiver with them to be recycled. They even replaced the wiring on one of my Bose surrounds without my asking them to do so. I think $129.99 is the 'standard' Geek Squad fee. They did a great job! I would definitely use the Best Buy Geek Squad, again, in the future. Kurt
