........will they have a sale?

the internet is available now. do research on the items you want before you get there...or go to the internet on your phone while your there... i wonder if we can take the adds from circuit city to get them price matched at best buy...hmm

I was among the the first string of Circuit Cities that were let go. What actaully happes is they sell all their inventor and fixtures in a contract with an liquidator. From there, the liqidatators come in and change the prices. What most pple dont know is that all the liqidator does is remove all previous discounts and starts off with a standard % off. However some things we got from certain vendors were cheaper than others so we could sell it for less too. For example. On the first day of the sale TV's go down to ten percent. And you have been looking at a Panasonic TV for a while now and all the sudden the prices jump up a thousand $$$. What just happened is that the tv u were looking at was probably an old model and Circuit City had Big discount on it (like its competetors) to get rid of it. But when the liquidation prices come in all the TV whether new or old go back to their non discounted original price then the 10% off is taken off of it. So for some items, your really not getting a good deal, but for others like an ipod for example or a wii (things that never go below retail price), its nice to save a few penies. So if u want the best price for something ur lookin for, your gonna have to stalk the item every day as the prices drop, cuz people WILL BUY IT FROM UNDER YOUR NOSE. I saw it happen over and over again. I hope this long message cleared up any confusion. If u still have remarks/questions please post them.

it will be missed, was the first mega electronics supplier in my area :(

The only good place to shop for electronics is online nowadays. Newegg. TigerDirect. NOBODY can beat those two put together except maybe an ebay auction where people always get ripped off with defective parts and such.

I went to Circuit City 2 weeks ago for the first time in like 8 years and wasn't impressed with a single price in the place!

When Best Buy first came out... I thought it was the shiznit... now it too sucks at most of its prices. I only shop there when things are on sale.



I do feel sorry for all the people who are out of work. But I can't feel sorry for a company name that is a bunch of greedy bastards.



It's a shame people forgot highschool-supply and demand-economics. When you make $60 worth of PROFIT for an item sold, but you only sell 2 a day, common sence should tell you that if you average 20 sales a day while only making $20 PROFIT for that same item... YOU'RE MAKING MORE MONEY BY SELLING IT AT THE LOWER PRICE!

Look at the bright side. We still have Best Buy

The Best Screw You Over Buy?





***** them son of a *****es

Where am i going to get my electronics now?



oh right..

I second your second point. NewEgg > Tiger Direct



Also eBay > all for games. Really don't know why you'd go anywhere else. I always get games for 50% or more off retail on there

It's sad to see another big corporation go down because of our "screw you" economy but...



I never liked Circuit City much anyway, and I usually found better prices and a wider selection at Best Buy...

thats a shame
