    My last two purchases at Circuit City were a Whirlpool side-by-side refrigerator in 1995 (they should have never stopped selling appliances, they were second only to Sears in appliance sales), and my first TiVo, bought 9/10/01 (the TiVo nearly had a breakdown trying to keep up with all the schedule changes resulting from 9/11).

    I've had some pretty wretched experiences at Best Buy, but I cannot honestly say that I have ever had a good experience at a Circuit City.


    The store was perpetually disorganized, the DVD section looked like someone had vomited up skus on wire shelving at random. You had to look in 8 different locations to find one cable.


    I'm sorry, I prefer to shop like a man. Go in as a tactical strike, recover the goods, check out, go home.

    @Lite's Posse: Is on Broadway: I've had some of those same crappy experiences at Best Buy as well. Oddly enough though I never had any issues with Circuit City. I didn't go there often but whenever I did they seemed to have better prices than BB and the lines at the register were always much, much shorter (no doubt because everyone was over at BB).

    all of the permeating memories i have of the place are going there with my dad to return the crap products they sold us that turned to junk shortly after we'd bought them. afterwards i would get taken to putt-putt to for ice cream and video games.


    as long as i still have video games and delicious fattening treats i think i'll manage to get over this one.


    wait, are we talking about service merchandise?
