I was mad when they closed their store here a few years ago. I wish we had better electronics store choices than Best Buy.

AGreed but CC didn't exactly have competitive prices when they were here at the time.

Eh, I bought a couple of off the shelf items and feel I got pretty good deals.

Yeah, but I have never been a big fan of the shelf sales. You never know what you are going to end up with after everybody had handled it.

Doesn't surprise me. Whenever I drive past the store in Liberty, the parking lot is always empty.

I ****ing hate Best Buy. CC isn't great, but at least they aren't the pushy dickbags that the BB salesforce is.

DO you know about the store in Coumbia? Is it probably going to close as well or just the KC area stores?

Well for now.. I suspect the whole company will go down by next fall.. No way to survive losing that many stores, it is close to 25% of their stores they are closing down right before Christmas.. |

Yeah.. With online stores destroying brick and mortar stores by prices and not having to pay out 90% employees eventually they will all go down.. Big Box stores like Walmart/Target will also destroy them..The only reason they will last until next year is the 6months they will get from the NYSE..
