Holy crap....next thing you know it would be Best Buy.....
Talk about someone taking a hit....If K-Mart didn't get bought out by Sears, I would have thought they would have went under first....

It was a long time coming. People buy their music and movies on the internet - it's cheaper.
Just another inefficient middleman gone. Like the door-to-door milk men.
Soon even the internet retailers will go under when the manufacturers will sell directly from their own personal website!

Most manufactures sell directly from their website, but they will never stop selling with internet retailers, it's free advertising.

This has been talked about for a while. I hope Best Buy will be next. Online shopping is the way to go nowadays. Just have a warehouse in the middle of nowhere, not all these dumb stores every 5 miles ... ;)
-
Best Buy charges alot more, so I doubt it. cc always had great deals, constantly, same problem future shop had.
-
the only problem i have with them going under is that factor that i used to buy electronic parts from them. with them gone, i have no where in my city to buy them :(

I don't see you buying anything from there ... :P

I never shopped at Circuit City or Best Buy in my life. I usally get all my computer stuff at newegg.com

Maybe the problem is all of these stores want to be everything. Staples is just an Office Supply store but they focus just as much on computer hardware as they do Office stuff.
Wal Mart is EVERYTHING, and that cuts off all the simple little stores that've been there years before Wal Mart was.

I got no hate agaisnt bestbuy. since I'm in Canadia, we dont have true CCs. We have best buy and futureshop. Personally I like BB more because you can go in there knowing what you want without some commision based sales guy telling you that you should get something that better on commision instead. I never really use the internet for buying stuff. The last time I did, I bought my senheisser (spelling?) px100's from tiger direct and even then I made the offer over the phone.
After taking some of the networking courses at my school it completely put me off releasing any type of bank or credit info on the net.

I'm just jokin around about Best Buy, because my mom and I bought a huge hdtv from there for a great price a few months ago. I've just got beef with my ex workin there. ;)
