Circuit City always seemed kind of trashy to me, maybe it was just some of the stores I went in.

^^no they are trashy. any retail store where employees are fighting for commission without the ability to give discounts is a trash heap.

I know what it is - most stores I was ever in always seemed to be doing some kind of renovation. There'd be a section of new, unpainted drywall, or big sheets of plastic walling off some new display that was being built.
Know what I mean?

what's funny is that Best Buy had started mimicing some of circuit city's PR. look at the huge sculptural entrance similar Circuit city's entrance. All these fuckers over price shit.

I hate all these big box electronic stores. The sales help is always fucking useless, telling me shit I know is just flat out wrong 75% of the time, and I can buy cheaper online....good riddance...

i predicted they would go out of business about seven years ago or so back when they were trying to promote the failed divx format. i'm surprised they made it this far while contenting with bigger, more successful retail giants like best buy and fry's.
and yes, they are trashy. i always hated the early 90's dim-lit car-audio-specialty store vibe i got there.
