Unless they've changed things since I worked there, no. They get hammered by
their managers to push accessories, service plans, and other add-ons, so while
there's no incentive for them to load people up, there's a strong disincentive
to not doing the same.
At various times, I sold computers and cell phones, so at least I didn't have
any Monster snake-oil to push. The video & audio guys had that task, though,
as well as a manager who had chugged the Monster Kool-Aid.
