Not sure if any of you have heard about this yet but Circuit City is closing 150 stores nationwide. Should be some nice deals if you are nearby.
List (http://files.shareholder.com/downloads/CC/457652494x0x245809/2BFAC9D9-6CEF-4027-9E51-1C635F42F7A7/110308%20Store%20Closing%20List.pdf)
Unfortunately there are no PA stores in the list but there are 3 in Maryland for you southerly Fites members.

I hear it is 155 stores now.
-
And what I find funny is that they recently opened ANOTHER one around here.

Well the 150 wasn't an exact number. I was just trying to get something close.

thats the kind of spending that probably got em in trouble!

They filed for Chapter 11 so there will probably be more stores closing in the future. Personally I think their service sucks, I've had a few problems with a surround sound system that they ultimately said they couldn't repair only to give me a new one that was less expensive than the one I originally purchased. Thankfuly it's lasted 3 years now :) I think the only reason Best Buy hasn't destroyed Circuit City in sales is their stupid restocking fee.
I give CC 6 months, if they don't pull out of CH11 in 6 months they will dissolve.

According to this article (http://consumerist.com/5083225/circuit-city-gets-a-loan-lives-to-fight-another-day) Circuit City got a loan that will assist them until they recover from bankruptcy.

Damn! No fire sales then? Bastards.
-
I think they are still closing stores and downsizing, but in the end it looks like Circuit City will still be around.

circiut city is the last place i will go to buy anything..the store in lancaster is pathetic.....worst service ever..horrible inventory.....unless it was almost free i still would not go
-
I've had so many bad experiences there, I've vowed never to go back to that one. I fully intend to stick to that too.

my wife wont even go back & all she does is buy photo paper for the printer
-
no way...their prices are so low and their staff is so knowledgable. Lets face it they are the red bestbuy.

Sarcasm, obviously ----^

Where am I gonna return my subs when I blow them out? (service plan) or my mp3 player when i want to upgrade? (service plan)
Not that I'm confused why they're closing.

New update. They are closing the stores and liquidating their assets. Looks like we will be able to find some good deals anyway.
