BestBuy.ca Precart

Easy way to precart the gpu you want

This extension allows you to add a product from https://www.bestbuy.ca/ to your cart that isn't available yet. This process of "pre-carting" a product makes it easier to purchase it when it becomes available in stock. This method is used to help combat the excessive bots that are buying up all the stock.

In order to use the extension you must be signed in to an account on https://www.bestbuy.ca/. Then simply copy the Web Code from the product page and paste it in the SKU field and click Add to cart. The card will then be added to your cart. There are some instances where an error may pop up informing you to delete your cookies. If this is the case, click Delete Cookies and sign in once again.

Extension safety

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

BestBuy.ca Precart requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Chrome extension may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Chrome extension reputation on Chrome Web Store, the amount of time the Chrome extension has been around, and other signals about the Chrome extension. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Chrome extension.

BestBuy.ca Precart may not be trust-worthy. Avoid installing if possible unless you really trust this publisher.
