Circuit city, one of the largest retailer in the consumer electronics was severely hit by the recession and decided to
close all its store in United States last Friday, January 16th 2009.
This would cost another 34,000 to lose their job in this bad economy.
It is very bad to hear this retailer giant closing its operations in all locations.
Today, I just went to their website www.circuitcity.com and learned that their home page has turned into
nothing but a frequently asked questions (FAQ) page, to answer questions about the warranty purchased or about the future of the company.
A great saga of more than 50 years in consumer electronics has come to an end :-(
this is really sad. but you know what, in the sunday paper today cc still has a flyer on it. i wonder if that was ordered before the decision to close down.
