I spent hours and days trying and it keeps telling me not in my store but I find it in a store like 85 miles away, This is BS. My local store stash the cards for family members of the employees or even worse the manager keeps them for himself. This is BS

No, people would be pretty mad if that was the case. In terms of bots, we will have to see. In the past Best Buy has used several measures such as phone/email codes and lengthy MFA processes to combat bots.

Hard to tell. Assume they won’t be available for weeks or a month or so best case, even better case is they stay in stock for minutes rather than seconds
