Typical limits on Best Buy MC?

I'm considering asking Citi for a CLI on my Best Buy MC in anticipation of picking up some home theater equipment from Magnolia.  I'm hoping to increase my line from 10k to at least 20k, but I was curious what limits other cardholders typically have with this card.   Anyone out there with a crazy Venture-style 50k CL? Smiley LOL

Typical limits? Well mine started at $300 but has since grown to $3000. 

 

I cant imagine there are many over 10K, you are probably in the far upper echelon.

Re: Typical limits on Best Buy MC?

well I got my card 13 months ago. Sl 2k. Just got 

cli last week to 4k. I don't use it much. So they doubled limit. Hp of course. Ice seen 1 with 12 k. Your are maxing already with 10k. Rarely will they give the limit your are looking for. Even with 800 score. I would not waste hp trying on this card best used on a non co branded card.

Re: Typical limits on Best Buy MC?

I've got no experience with this but I wonder if they'll work more with you if (for instance) you called and said "I have a quote for a $17k magnolia purchase/install and want to put it on my BB card"...?
