Circuit City......RIP
 

Today, the bones were picked clean of any remaining flesh. The stores closed yesterday. They will be missed. I spent a ton of cash and many pleasant afternoons cruising the DVDs, games and cameras for deals.

RIP ol' friend and say "hello" to CompUSA when you see them.

Some of us will miss you.

The one in Tampa had a old couch in the middle of the store for employees to chill. They had that "fuck if I care" attitude towards everyone. CC was overpriced anyways - even their clearance prices were borderline competitive. Good riddance.

I went in there a few weeks ago to get a new printer/scanner/copier/fax/bottle washer. Got a good deal on that, but I have to say, as I walked by the DVD aisle I could not believe the prices they were charging. Though the roof.

I got a Velocity Micro GX435 for $1,100 when Amazon was asking $1,899 on a $2,199 list price.

Not too shabby.

I read to get the best deal during Circuit City closing sale was to go to Best Buy. I browsed through the store and the inventory was horrible and so were the prices... I was expected an actual deal. :/

so now where does the remaining stock go?

Surely you'll be missed.

I agree. The prices were really not that low at all. They should have lowered them alot lower.

Oh well, they're fucking history now. :1orglaugh

best buy body slammed them broke their spinal cord rip

I'll miss the 18 year old girls trying to sell my something older than them.

no way

when are they shutting down walmart geez

I'm glad Fry's Electronics is still around. Low prices, great selection, up to date merchandise, decent service

I never liked shopping there. Prices were ridiculous unless you catch the sales.

Similar to Sears & Bed Bath & Beyond. Way overpriced unless you are using a mailer or catching to good sale, then the prices become normal not great.

I got some great shit a week ago. Sunday's pickings weren't too great.

Picked up 5 8GB Sony Memory Sticks for $10 each.

im glad about it

RIP bro!

Never set foot in one. Never been in a best buy either. No need anymore to shop with your feet and your gas money. Dealing with some pimple faced kid.

Circuit City in my area always sucked, horrible customer service, rude employees, clearly mismanaged. Surprised they lasted so long with a Best Buy always right across the road. Good riddance

Good riddance! They never had good prices compared to Best Buy or even Walmart, lol. The sales staff were worse than used car salesmen. They will not get an RIP from me. Fuck you, Circuit City!

bad days :(

Ha.. You should see the prices in the Sears here.. Want to talk about expensive.. But ours sells things like Hilfiger and Polo and things.

Their customer service was the WORST! Clerks didn't have a clue on what they were selling, cashiers wouldn't say a word to you at all. They dug their own hole as far as I see, Let them die!

fuck them good riddance...I remember when they tried to shove divx down everyones throat.

My old pot dealer used to work there.

They are the ones who invented the 'service insurance'. Biggest scam ever. Fuck them. On that note the Virgin Mega Store across the street is also going out of business

Now we're waiting for wallmart to close its doors

they were more expensive and had shitty service, survival of the fittest!

the same should happen to GM and Chrysler

A lot of people bought some nice cheap stuff :)

No shit! When will they shut down walmart!

I got a desktop camera for 10 bucks.

never ever:1orglaugh

That is because they removed the commission structure 10 years ago. I worked there when I was 18 and went from $28 an hour on commission to $6.95. Once that happened, nobody gave a shit anymore and I quit the next day. The good part of it all, is that I met my wife there, so I owe CC a thanks for that...And for getting me started with my own web based business! :thumbsup
