For orders made online, your receipts can be found on your profile if you have a My Best Buy membership. As long as your ID is linked to your bestbuy.com account on , it is very easy to find all your receipts:

Log in to your account and find your purchases and orders. Find the order which the receipt is needed and select the “see details and receipt” tab.

You should have your order number, phone number, and the last name ready.

Purchases made in-store using credit cards

If you need a copy of the receipt for a purchase that has been completed, visit the customer service section at the Best Buy store close to you. If the purchases were made using a credit card, go to the store along with the credit card used for the purchase. The customer care agents will help you look up the receipt using the credit card. If you have a My Best Buy® membership, your receipt can be located using your email address, phone number, or member ID.

If none of the above steps works out, you can send a private message to a Moderator. The message should contain important details like your full name, the email address linked with the Best Buy account, your Member ID, your phone number, the payment method used for the purchase, the date of the purchase, and the location of the store from which the purchase was made. You can send a private message by clicking the “contact me” box on the profile page of any moderator.

Take note that purchases made using checks or cash cannot be retrieved if you do not have a Best Buy membership account. Receipts for purchases older than ten years cannot also be retrieved. 

Return policy of Best Buy

You can find almost any electronic device in Best Buy stores including speakers, cellphones, washers, and laptops. Electronics are not cheap, so you have to fully understand Best Buy’s stance on returns before purchasing any item. Best Buy gives customers a grace period of 14 days in which they can return items to the store without the need for a receipt. When going to the store, you have to go along with an ID issued by the government, so that your returns can be tracked to recognize any suspicious returns that have been made before. It is important all returned items are returned in good working condition. 

Some items have a restocking fee. These include DSLR cameras, drones, smartphones, and projections.

Gifts should be returned in-store as you might be awarded store credit without the person who gave you the gift being notified.

For refurbished or preowned products, Best Buy expects that they’ll work as new. So, when these products are returned, they have the same return window as new products.
