When blu ray's first came out I bought ATL from there. When I got home I opened it up and it was a blank cd-r disc. So I took it back in there and had to explain to the manager what had happened and he let me exchange it for Talladega Nights. I open it up out in the parking lot and the disc says not for resale. They sold me a promo disc. I took it back and he said he couldn't keep exchangin me disc's. Ever since then I've never been back. They always seemed to carry low quality shit...

CiRcuit City is like K-Mart to me.
back when we were like 13, my friend and I would jack at least 2 CD's from there every weekend.

I hated shopping there. nothing CD/DVD-wise was in order. shit was just scattered. I hate me some CC.

 

[f31roger]

I never went there. Them, Good Guys and future shop all seemed the same to me.

I watched a news report on Circuit City where the reporters went to Circuit City, and even with the so called "savings", Wal-Mart and Best-Buy still had the better price. Consumers were interviewed and said the Circuit City bargains were fake.

Circuit City was the shit back then. If they would've changed with the times and kept up-to-date I'm pretty sure they would've stayed in business....

That's the problem with a lot of businesses nowadays, they don't adapt.

thats true these old ass business models weren't working in the internet age.
you could buy shit on ebay for like 10 cents that they sold at circuit city for 20 bucks. it was only a matter of time.

Couple Buys Shattered LCD TV at Circuit City
Store's liquidators refuse to refund couple $1,100 for damaged Samsung LCD TV.

When it comes to liquidation sales, like the one at Circuit City, consumers need to be wary about buying potentially damaged merchandise.

A Massachusetts couple learned the hard way after purchasing a Samsung LCD TV for $1,100. When they opened the box at home, they realized the display was shattered. Not a crack, nick or ding. Shattered.

Because “all sales are final,” Circuit City’s liquidators will not refund the couple’s money.

“They said, ‘Sorry, your problem, not ours,” the frustrated woman told WCVB-TV in Boston.

You’re probably wondering why the couple didn’t check the TV before buying it? Some stores aren’t allowing consumers to open any boxes.

WCVB claims to have found signs that read “Check your purchase” and “Don’t open the merchandise” at the same store.

This isn’t an isolated incident. According to the Consumerist, a family in Minnesota paid $1,500 for a shattered TV.

The Massachusetts couple is hoping their credit card company will help them fight the purchase. Good luck.

I tried to get some deals when they were in the process of shuttin down but I guess everyoine took all the good shit. They were charging 300 for a DVD player without any wires and without the box that it comes in. lol

If anything, I'd just buy some CDs or DVDs if they are at clearance price. I wouldn't buy anything big and expensive that I wouldn't be able to return to a no-longer-existing store because of some defect that shows itself shortly after I buy it.
