Got them on sale for something like $10 to use at work. Wasn't expecting much. Turns out they're not half bad!

Hard to beat for the price

I got two of them on sale for $30 each. They get surprisingly loud for their size. Sound is clear through most of the volume range, but they do tend to break up a little at the top end, same as most other speakers. I do get an occasional pop in the audio, but I attribute this to either the Bluetooth function of my phone or to interference from my 2.4Ghz WiFi network in my house. I have the same problem with a $200 headset as well when paired to the same iPhone.

Pretty good deal, especially at clearance price. Haven't really pushed it to its limit though because I'm running it in an old system with a Core 2 Quad 6600 cpu so the rest of my system is the bottleneck.

Yep. It's a gift card.

It does what other gift cards do. Also works well for people that either don't have a credit or debit card or for those that don't don't trust their information on Sony's servers after their much-publicized security breaches.
I gave it only 4 stars because I'd rather have the codes delivered digitally like they used to offer. I'm not sure why you can't get codes that way anymore, but it was a lot more convenient than having to ship or go to the store to pick it up. This makes me less likely to buy these cards as a result.

Best paper for Epson printers
on April 29, 2015
Posted by: Vipre77
from Milwaukee, WI
Verified Purchase:Yes
I've tried other brands that I've had good luck with (Canon, Kodak, etc.) and for whatever reason the colors come out weird on them with my Epson Artisan 837. I tried endlessly altering profiles and tweaking other printer settings with no luck. I just wasted time and materials. The Epson papers worked best on my Epson printer.

Most convenient and reliable option

Verified Purchase:Yes
I've tried refillable carts in my Artisan 837 and they are a fraction of the cost to use, but a huge hassle and don't trigger the ink level readings correctly. Let me tell you... It's a huge pain in the butt if the ink lines get run dry in these printers because the printer didn't know you were low on ink. Priming the lines wastes tons of ink and time fiddling around with it. I've come back to using official carts just to avoid all that. Yes, it costs a lot more, but the savings with refillables frankly isn't worth my time and aggravation.. I just wish these tanks were bigger. They run out far too quickly for the money. A full set of black + color tanks on the Artisan 837 will run close to $80 even on sale.

Good, but least exciting of the series so far

This movie, as the title suggests, is not the full story. Book 3 in the series was split into 2 movies in the film adaptation, so we didn't get an epic finish in this movie because it is merely setting us up for the next film.

Nice upgrade for an older computer

Fast and exceptional reception. The built-in wireless-N adapter on my laptop started to flake out and gave me spotty connections and slow speeds. With this adapter, my connection is now stable with faster than ever speeds without having to relocate my computer.

Good entry level model

Not the fastest drive on the market, but I got it on sale at a good price. The mounting holes on the drive didn't line up with the drive cradle on my Toshiba laptop, so I had to mod the cradle a bit to get the screws in. Once we got it setup and my old drive data mirrored onto the drive, it was off to the races. Like a new computer again.

Good. Wish cord was longer.

It's a USB 2.0 hub. 4 ports. Does what I need it to do, no issues. The built in cord is shorter than I'd like. It's only a couple inches long. Wish it was more like 1-2 feet or even better yet would be to just have a port where I could connect my own cable. This was one of the cheapest options available in-store at the time I bought it.

QcK mousepads are the top choice of esports pros. The legendary micro-woven cloth has made the QcK line the world’s best-selling gaming surface. Tested by the top mouse sensor manufacturer, the high thread count and smooth surface optimizes mouse tracking accuracy for both optical and laser sensors..
 

What material is used

Typical mouse pad material. Foam rubber (neoprene?) base with a cloth top surface. Nothing too special there beyond the XL size of the pad.

NETGEAR Universal Wi-Fi Dual-Band Range Extender: Add some extra power to your existing network and access the Internet in areas of your home that were once dead zones. The FastLane feature of this universal range extender offers high-speed Wi-Fi over a single band, which makes for quick and consistent HD gaming and video streaming.
 

Will this item be compatible with a Gateway device on a Honeywell Prestige thermostat. Home uses a Verizon mobile hot spot device as its router.

We have installed a WIFI thermostat for this customer. Customer does not have a router, but since they are in a rural area, they use a Verizon mobile hot spot device. I just want to make sure this range extender will link with the Gateway and thermostat.
It should work as long as the hotspot is broadcasting a wifi signal, this range extender should be able to connect to it. The hotspot is functioning as a router as you're explaining it and the range extender won't know the difference.

I bought some skull candy ear phones from best buy and they have been stolen. Can I replace them if I have a 2 year warranty?

It's a warranty, not an insurance policy. The Best Buy extended warranty covers breakage, either accidental or due to defect, not loss or theft. You could make a home-owner's insurance claim on it, but I highly doubt it would be worth it.

can this be used to plug printer to 2 computers to print from both?

No, this device is for connecting multiple devices to a single computer. What you're looking for is called a print server. I don't know if Best Buy still carries those or not. Some routers have this function built in. Alternatively, many newer printers support a feature called Air Print which allows any device with a wireless connection to your network to print directly to the printer.
