I had a "love-hate" relationship with CC - it was mostly hate, on some occasion I loved hating the store. Next to CompUSA, it held a very special place in my heart - a place I never wanted to visit and tried to avoid at all costs.

Well, looks like the sucker is done and goin' belly up. No Chapter 11, do not pass go, proceed straight to liquidation.

Yes, another one bites the dust. I'd say I feel sorry for their staff but most of them were incompetent, unhelpful, and plain cunts on those rare occasions when I managed to chase one down. The back-office lot, I'm sure, was not much different either. So, forgive me if you don't see me shedding any tears for demise of yet another fucked company.

Well, good riddance and it's been (not so) nice knowing you.

You wont see too much of the good stuff discounted that much since the liquidators will buy it all out.. & then you might find it on ebay & overstock.

Speaking of which, last night my friend who works at circuit city turned off the back door sensors so we could come in and steal a bunch of stuff. We wanted to be discrete so we put everything into my girlfriends bag that we could, so we ended up with an assortment of CDs and DVDs, wireless networking card, hdtv tuner card, 1tb hard drive, 250gb laptop harddrive, and a few other small items, lol. Was quite a good night.

liqudators can mark up the price over 100% over retail, THEN discount the product. So in fact MSRP might still be alot cheaper even after the "discount"

This is exactly what happened when they closed a ton of stores at the end of last year. You could go across the street to Best Buy and buy the same shit for cheaper.

Can't wait for those liquidation sales.

dude if i were to break in and steal shit i'd definitely go straight for the laptops, car recievers, guitar hero, etc. stuff that's small, but expensive. i wouldn't even bother with the dvd's.
