You could either have a synonym filter to replace "bestbuy" with "best buy"
or use DictionaryCompoundWordTokenFilterFactory to do the same.
See:
http://lucene.apache.org/core/4_4_0/analyzers-common/org/apache/lucene/analysis/compound/DictionaryCompoundWordTokenFilterFactory.html
There are some examples in my book, but they are for German compound words
since that was the original primary intent for this filter. But it should
work for any words since it is a simple dictionary.

between words?
Also consider WordDelimterFilterFactory, which will break up the
tokens on upper/lower case transitions.
to get relevance, consider edismax-style query parsers and adding
automatic phrase generation (with boosts usually).
This one will be a problem:
q=bestbuy
There's no good generic way to get this to split up. One
possibility is to use synonyms if the list is known, but
otherwise there's no information here to distinguish it
from "legitimate" words.
edgeNgrams work on _tokens_, not words so I doubt
they would help in this case either since there is only
one token.
