Curtains for Circuit City

(1/8) > >>

Singapura:
Circuit City has finally blacked out after years of brownouts.

Circuit City, along with 17 affiliates, filed for bankruptcy protection on Monday in Richmond, Va., where the company is based. Its Canadian operations filed in Ontario courts.

Monday's announcement comes one week after Circuit City (nyse: CC - news - people ) said it was closing 155 of its more than 700 stores in 55 markets by the end of the year and firing about 17.0% of its U.S. work force. It also said it was considering all options to restructure.

mountain:
Crap! Now where will I go to get tackled by multiple salespeople as soon as I walk through the door? I always hated that store.

ChadTower:

They just opened one right by my house.  It's less than 6 months old.

Ginsu Victim:
They were rubbish. Only thing I ever bought from them was my first DVD player for $200.

Mauzy:
Oh they aren't gone quite yet. They only filed for Chapter 11. Of course there's very little chance they can restructure successfully, but stranger things have happened.
