really the only things that will fly out of the doors the first week is ipods. why, because u know and i know when u get 5% off an ipod its a deal becauseeveryone knows ipods never go on sale other than that if you are not buying an ipod stay away from circuit city until 2 or 3 weeks later. those liquidaters areout to get your money the first couple of weeks after that they want to get back home to there family's so they start to sell things cheap.As i recall westarted off at 5% and 10% and it stayed that way for weeks, you guy's will see what i'm talking about when u start to shop.

Dude, how could your 46" samsung stay in stock for sooo long that it ended up being that cheap? Did you stash it in the back or something?
 
Hopefully I can pick up a PS3, a camera and some games/dvds. Anyone know if the one on Pines Blvd. is closing?
 
^^^ nope the thing is tv's did'nt start moving out the door until they hit 50% off. when the first week of the sales a lot of customers thought we weregoing to have crazy deals. it was funny because we had atleast 200 people waiting outside of the door before we opened after we opened the door everyone ofthose customers saw our prices and all walked right back out because 5% off and 10% off was nothing off of items that have been marked up. so funny.oh to everyone that wants to know which ones are closing they all are.
 
^^^I was just about to ask the same question about how you got the tv. Well hopefully I can cop a good tv for cheap. There's a couple cc within a 15 minradius from me so I hope I can get lucky. Hey airjordans, is there a ton of tv's that cc has in stock on the regular? When were all tvs sold out? I wannahold out....but I wanna know when to just buy and not miss out
 
Can't say I didn't see this coming...
Hey by March I'll have 6 months under my belt so I'm straight.
I go in tomorrow so if I find out any information I feel is post worth I'll let you know.
 
dont go there now like the people have been saying

i used to work close to a tower records and i went in there every day since it was close


they start with 10-15 % off, and each week go up 5-10%( for example 20,25,30, 40, 50,60,70,75,80%)

so wait it out, if there something u want u should monitor it , if u have time

yes they do have a lot of tv's in stock and they also sell the displays so check in often after about 2 weeks to see where they drop thepercentage off too. To tell u the truth all the tv's sold out the day before we closed.But you guys have to remember they also have to get rid of things inthere main warehouse's so things will still be getting shipped to certain locations. thats why circuit city is planning to close at the end of march. buywhen tv's hit 30% 40% and 50% thats the best deals.
 
I didn't read through all of the pages, but for those who wants more detail...go to Circuit City's home page.
