When's the liquidation sale? I need a few things.

I have never purchased anything from Circuit City. This is in part to the fact that Circuit City never had the service I wanted. The company cannot pull off any turnarounds in this market and will be forced to close their doors permanently and liquidate their products. Best Buy has better trained associates to assist the customers.

interesting, you know I shopped at CC several times but never bought anything there, I would use them for their sales people then go next door and buy the same product from Best Buy at a lower price... I guess Im not surprised they are going under!

Who cares?

Maybe some TVs will finally be marked down at Circuit City.

Circuit City has finally realized its destiny. They were a top heavy egotistical bunch of assholes that protected the hiarchy of its company. But now the chickens have come home to roost. They are getting just what they deserve. Hopefully they will dissolve and close their doors.

we dont have a circut city close to us
but we do have a best buy
best buy should also go under their customer service is none existant
their return police sucks (15% restocking fee on defective products)
their service plans have a turn around time of 6 months

Could not happen to a better company. I have boycotted the store since 2002, when they gave me a hassle about fixing a 6 month old computer with motherboard issues. I also kindly informed others of the bad service.

Had a gift card, was holding it and holding it...worried that they would go down, and I would be stuck with it...Every person I talked to in the TV dept. had a diff. opinion,bought ONE tv had to take it back, finally got another tv, it took total time 1 1/2 mos. to get this all solved. I'm glad I used it up but.....

Go ahead everybody, let Circuit City close then Best Buy can name all of its prices!!! Its called no-compitition, people! Wake up

The only thing that's bad about this is, alot of times, C.C. has better prices in thier flyers (especially dvd's) and if you bring they're Sunday flyer to Best Buy, they'll match the price! Otherwise, I don't see any other loss of them going down. It's unfortunate for the employees! This recession is killing ALOTof people!!!

From the comments above noone seems to care if CC bites the dust. Keep in mind that when they do, there's very few total electronic stores left to keep Best Buy in line with pricing. This may seem like a good thing but you might end up paying more for those little gadgets in the future. Some of this is healthy, but we really don't want a non competative marketplace....

Nick Miller -- where will you go now for your electronics expertise? Apparently, price is not everything.

Circuit city is the much better store than the not a very Best Buy store. I had a computer prob. w/the pc purchased from Best Buy, among other things, ie; Nikon Coop pix camera...the staff was rude, obnoxios and outright stupid !!!
So why is the better store going??

Your comments are rife with grammatical errors.

I actually don't mind going to Circuit City as their staff has always been very helpful and knowledgable.
If I HAVE to go to Best Buy? I will research everything on line then order it so all I have to do is walk in and pick it up. I can't stand what they call assistance.

I've always found the employees at Circuit City to be more knowledgable than Best Buy. Went to the latter and the guy from the Geek Squad they had couldn't even get on the internet! The Firedog guy at Circuit City answered all my questions. I've had this experience at more than one store from each chain, too.

I had a bad experience with Circuit City and getting a Cell plan years ago...The sales made it seem as I got the best phones and had these wonderful rebates. However the 75. and 100.00 rebates both went to the same address and it was stated on the form, one rebate only for each number! To say the least they were at that time #1 in retail of that sort. Well I did go to management and get that straight, but never shopped there again.
I do not feel though however the store is going under due to those shoppers that go elsewhere, it is this Recession "that the government finally figured we are having" about a year later then it really started.
I also do believe it is these bigwigs with the large 6 and 7 figure salaries that need to take the cuts to let and help us little people survive and not be on the streets. Or maybe they will be kind enough to let us knock on their doors?
Well good luck all, Circuit City and all retail, but mainly to us middle and lower income families with children.
Peace

I feel Joy in my Heart to just think these Bastards will close their doors!!! A bunch of street scum, with out the dignity of street scum. They simply refuse to give refunds, or exchange what they'd prefer not to, regardless of what is even written on your sales contract. I have had nothong but trouble from them, with anything I or someone else I knew bought anything from them... They actually stole money from a friend of mine, refusing to take back a floor model TV that was defective, saying it was a discontinued modle and they were therefore not required to adhere to their own sales contract... It's just a shame their upper management and CEO isn't going to get some Jail Time!!!

I have found that Circuit City's prices are higher and they seem to be regularly understaffed, but they are very intelligent about the products they carry.
Best Buy has more people who know their technology, but only in the act of selling and "bait and switch" sales techniques (Oh, we ran out of the sale item, but we have this more expensive similar item.) Watch out for Best Buy!
