Here's the text I just sent CC: "Just heard Circuit City is closing many stores. I'm sorry for some of the good employees. However, as a customer, I saw this coming long ago, due to the consistently poor customer service, inadequate stock on sales items, fraudulent tech repair procedures (news investigation story), previous layoffs / rehire policy, etc. Exactly what happened to CompUSA! Refuse or fail to take care of your customers, and no amount of paid advertising, training, or sales gimmicks can make up for your sales lost to negative reputation." EDITED TO Add: Given the poor customer service I felt I experienced at many stores besides Circus City, (including Worst Buy and Oriface Depot), I was getting concerned that it may just be me (too demanding a customer - just like to complain maybe?). Then I realized that, no, I wasn't expecting too much - in stock merchandise, accurate advertising, available salespersons with adequate training and good attitudes, and no flagrant legal violations of my consumer rights. So, I too am back to supporting the good places to shop - like Newegg - where things don't always go perfect, but they work with you to make them right! |

Just got back from the CC near me in Mansfield, TX. Their team will be in there tomorrow to load closing prices....not sure what discounts to expect. The manager was away or I would've asked him. |

Let's hope this paves the way for a Frys expansion |

All the ones in Phoenix or closing, the one north of Deer Valley I believe in the Happy Valley Marketplace should be one of the better places to get some deals. Whenever someone post some laptop clearance deal for Best Buy the BB at Happy Valley seems to always have the deals in stock so I'm assuming if no one was shopping at Worst Buy there, I bet no one was even considering buying at the CC store there. This should mean some amazing deals there come Wednesday. |

The death spiral begins. It was always a good store to go to if you didn't want to be bothered by store clerks, since they head the other direction when they see anyone coming. |

Only 1 store in the entire Carolina's is closing. 1 of the 4 current Charlotte stores (University area) and only 1 of the current 11 stores within 60 miles of my home. HH Gregg has moved in locally, but I have been underwhelmed in general so now we are basically stuck with BB and CC and a couple Boutique AV stores who |

That only leaves one store in the city of Chicago (2500 N. Elston). Say bye bye to 1030 W. North Avenue. |

One store in Cincinnati closing, and it's close to me. I'll have to drop in there to see what happens. |

They're closing the Brown Deer store in Milwaukee for a SECOND time... It's an "Outlet" store.... of course the prices were a joke. I can't believe that store stayed as long as it did. Anyone buying from them deserve the deal they got at that store... |

Since the company itself is not going under, the current stock will not be handed over to liquidators. Most likely scenario is that they would give some minor discounts (more expensive items) to get rid of some stock. The cheaper stuff (dvds etc...) would have a bigger discount. The remaining inventory would be transferred to other locations. |
