Circuit City fails to be wanted, will now be liquidated

[mokthraka]

Yeah. Don't be like these (dumb) douchebags.

thanks for posting that website :) some funny things

Employee: ?I?m sorry sir, but your phone has water damage, which isn?t covered by the warranty. You will have to purchase a new phone.?

Customer: ?That?s ridiculous! I haven?t gotten the phone wet!?

Employee: ?Have you used the phone in the rain? Sometimes, that?s all it takes to get the internals wet enough to damage the device.?

Customer: ?Well, yes, but that doesn?t make any sense! Cows are in the rain all the time and they don?t die!?

Employee: ???

Me: *interjecting* ?Sir, cows aren?t electronic devices.?

Customer: *storms out*

gotta wonder if its real?

(sorry this is off topic)

Wow, that is such crap. I didn't know stores marked up prices during liquidation. I hope everyone watches that video before going down to circuit city to see all the prices jacked up

yeah but its a bit harder to do that with electronics cause generally if your going to buy something you know the price

+ its impossible to get away with it with new games since there always 60 or 50

or not never mind

but still games its harder to do that with

It isn't the store. In reality, Circuit City is already out of business, and there are liquidation companies doing the sales.

Circuit City was a terrible store and all my experiences there were bad. I just feel bad for all those people who lost their jobs.

I feel sorry for all the novice computer and TV users who are about to be raped by Best Buy in the services department, because now they pretty much have a nationwide monolopy on it. I lol at the people who complained about our diagnostic being $70, because after Best Buy gets finished with them they're going to wish they only had to spend $70.

Unless Walmart gets into the services industry quickly I expect Best Buy to make alot of money this year.

and for those who still hadn't realized it by now, for the first month the liquidator managers and all the employees are basically going to say screw you. If you come in their and mention any kind of price deal, you're not getting it. I don't care if a laptop has a busted screen you're not going to get it. during the last 2-3 weeks of the sales that's when the liquidators are more likely to get deals if you buy alot. So if you said i'll buy these 3 tv's here what can you do for me, they'll be likely to help you out, but if you're like I want this one TV and $100 off help me out, they're not doing anything. Just because they are going out of business doesn't mean they have to give this stuff away from free and that's what alot of you seem to think. They can send defective items back to the vendor for credit before they give it away to you.

yes, agree with the above. there's a lot of people out there, and here it seems, that are like vultures, hovering over the carcass looking for a free meal. come on, a fixture in the retail landscape is going bust, an icon. like them or not, Circuit City have been a part of the psyche, you can't just sum it all up with "ooh where's the deals".
