Circuit City official bankruptcy watch: final days, 90% off games, ends 03/08/09

[sunnysky]

Too bad all the X4 headsets were most likely already purchased by re-sellers before the liquidation even started. I really hate that they do that. But I do understand it is really just a last ditch effort to survive.

[dragilores]

I am in the market for a digital camera, anyone knows what's the percent off cameras right now?

[Wolfpup]

Is the progression of discounts likely to be the same around the country, or is that at the discretion of local managers? I'd like to know whether I can just keep an eye on this thread to find out when the discounts improve, or if I should be checking my store.

I'd like to know that too.

A couple friends who run independent game shops & video stores in my area (Palo Alto, CA) are responsible for prematurely cleaning out the nearby CCs. They CLAIM it's cheap than what their wholesale distributors charge them.

Geez...have they heard of Amazon? :D

10%

I'd like to know whether I can just keep an eye on this thread to find out when the discounts improve, or if I should be checking my store.From the previous timeframe with the 155 stores that closed, it depended on the store's inventory of items and how well they sold. Stuff that doesn't sell seemed to get discounted quicker than stuff that did sell. As time goes on, the discounts will increase over time, as there's a semi-set timeframe for the stores to be closed. For the most part, it seemed like every 1-2 weeks, there was an increase in the discounts, though obviously, a decrease in the inventory.

Geez...have they heard of Amazon? :DAmazon, NewEgg, ZipZoomFly, Target clearance, KMart clearance, etc, nope, I'm sure they've heard of none of those.

[jwilson25]

The CC near me in Northern VA has all game accessories for 30%. And games are 10-20% off. I actually got my copy of Dragon Warrior IV for 30% off. No reason other than the sales clerk said "and let's take 30% off that one" as he was going through my items to discount them.

Which NoVa store is this?

[etcrane]

So far this liquidation is a joke ... there are no good deals ... yet. Going in to CC today felt like any other day simply because everything was overpriced, even with the discounts ... some people might think they're getting a "deal" but anyone who lives near a Fry's should really know better ... even at 30% off I'm not sure most of the games will be worth it ... guess we'll see what's left when the actual deals start happening ...

I agree with you about the games, and almost everything else, but Wii points cards at 30% is an amazing deal in my opinion. The only time I saw them cheaper (I think $12 at TRU in the ad) one douchebag bought all 40 of them the morning they went on sale.

[Wario64]

Sorry if the question has been answered, but does point cards get included in the game acccessory category? They were 30% off for accessories at my circuit city, which seems like a pretty good deal

I'm specifically looking at PSN and X360 cards.

It depends on the store. My local CC isn't discounting them at all.

[v1et r1ce]

I just came back from the CC in Springfield PA. Still a lot of merchandise in the store (including games that were marked way up). Game points cards were not on sale. Game accessories were 30% of MSRP. I'll go back in a week or so to see if the prices have dropped any further.

Also I have never seen that many Guitar Hero World Tour (game and guitar) kits in my life. Those things will be around for a long time unless some Ebay/Craigslist vultures clean them out at the right price.
Did you see any 1600 points? Last time I went (Monday), I only saw a stack of 800 pointers.

And yes, they have loads of Guitar Hero and Rock Band stuff.

It seems to be YMMV. Mine allowed them out, of course a few employees were told they weren't and when I bought the last 7 1600 point cards and they came up as 30% off they were a little preturbed. Not at me but at the information they got form their manager.

[Chronotrigga]

800 Microsoft Points are $9.

I agree that's a great deal if your local store will honor it (mine didn't with PSN cards at least) and there definitely will be deals before CC disappears but it blows me away how much has already been sold at terrible discounts. Unfortunately it seems like quite a few of the stores are getting cleaned out by "bargain hunting" douchebags who also happen to be extremely stupid ...

[Crygor64]

I had an unusual experience at the CC in Albany, NY.

I was in the store a couple of days ago and prices were %20 off. I returned to the same store last night and prices were only %10 off. No explanation was given.

[Slappybob]

At the Austin CC's currently the prices were 30% off furniture, 20% off CDs and DVDs and 10% off everything else.

i picked up 2 Xbox cards, 1 1600 point one and 1 800 point one.

They only gave me %10 off on the 1600 point one :(

Ok, I feel fine now. That's my local CC when I'm not a school and it has the same deals as here in State College, so I'm not missing out.

I was at mine the other day (Wichita, KS). They said the liquidators had arrived yet but when they do, the % off might change. Perhaps the liquidators arrived at your store?

[bmoregeniusinc]

Any othe deals people got besides point card?

[Jimbo Slice]

Saw a few copies of Resident Evil 4 for the Wii.

I challenege you to find a copy of that ultra rare Game

Not even Gamestop has it listed for used.

Bad enough the percentage off is so pathetic, but they actually only calculated 1% off!!! Fucking liquidator douchebags!!! If it was 5% off it would be $941 or so...

CC is actually busy now, They have more customers than they ever had with 10% off impulse buys. If they would have did this (10% off everything) weeks ago maybe they wouldn't be closing now.

[screamokid4life]

I headed up my local circuit city and their was still a lot of stuff left. About half of all
the game accesories where gone. Most Wii point cards where gone and also the MS points cards. There was still a lot of psn cards. The games where a joke and about half the consoles where gone.

Just me thinking out loud.. What if you stole the psn, wii, or MS cards(since they are small). Then you wait like a really long time until everything is like 70% off and then you go back to CC and activate the cards..

[ViolentLee]

what is the name of the store?
eBay. ;)

[Fred87nc]

I went to a CC near me and had the ps3 controllers 30% off, which will be around 40 dollars each, Should I jump on it now? Can I find the dualshock 3 controllers anywhere for the same price or cheaper?

Amazon has it for $42.99 shipped, which is about the same or a little better after taxes you would pay at CC.

[emg28]

Meh. The Circuit City I checked had 30% off on furniture, 20% off on DVD/BR/CD and 10% off on everything else. Their game section looks that same as it was before. No MS points cards, though.

the employe at my cc wont give me a discount on psn cards

but i was thinking of hiding some good games in the pc section no one has touched them

[Fred87nc]

thanks, I knew better then to jump at them, I'm looking to buy around 10, so if they are around l8r on with higher discounts, I'll get them.

this is actually a good idea. Just hope no ones finds them

[horrido]

CC in Maple Grove MN pulled all points cards and Live membership cards. Said something about them not being eligible for the discount. That CC inst all that busy - only a handful of people there. They were busy during the initial weekend, when they were advertising 30% off. He also mentioned they were getting a big shipments of Wii's soon. Why are so many people criticizing shoppers looking for deals. There are some good deals in there, for christ sake. MS steering wheels were going for 30% off $69. I just bought a tiny digital camera for $9. You guys need to lighten up.

The steering wheels were $45 before the liquidation I believe. but whatever works for you.

The MS steering wheel was clearanced at Target for $24.98. In that light, $69.99 isn't that great of a deal. Many are upset because when the discounts finally get to a respectable level (imo, 30-40%) everything good will be gone.

Same thing happens at Target. Clueless people are happy to get 30% off on clearance games and they have no clue that the price will eventually go down to 75% off.

Also, the CC I checked today had copies of LotR:Conquest. That surprised me as I wouldn't think that they would've had that new of a game in stock.

[dragoon99]

I went to my local CC tonight. Games are only 10% off and plenty of stock left. How long do you think it will take to get to 30%-40%? Though I don't know what will be left at that point. Too bad the liquidators mark everything up before discounting. :(

I wish that SFIV would magically show up next week too ... I'd love to get it on clearance and it's probably the only way I'll ever buy it considering I love Street Fighter but suck at it enough that I can't justify paying full price ...

[flatliner718]

i got the last points card 4000 for 34.00 (flat) 30% off accessories in middletown ny circuit city. Its truly the only thing worth it for the drops that were there.

[jrsmaster411]

I found some $20 psn cards marked as $30 normal but %30 off price $20 :P no joke

[Chronotrigga]

Not really. Circuit City is getting the business because everyone knows that they're going to close and they want to get a good deal on items, but it ends up really being 10%. Circuit City closing has spread through the media to shoppers like wildfire. If it was a 10% off weekend sale or something, not a lot of people would know about it. A nationwide closing is big, which is why Circuit City is getting massive customers atm.

Also, I'm pretty sure a lot of us are in the same boat, as all others, wishing that more and more items will be clearanced off at something greater than 10%. Hopefully things will hit 30% to 40% by the end of next next weekend or if not, oh well. 10% wasn't anything major anyway. The only thing worth getting really are accessories that are 30% off. 10% is nothing, considering online deals are, in retrospect, cheaper.

[Gameboy415]

I scoped out 3 CC's over the last two days and I got:

-9 Wii Point Cards at $13.99 each
-Mario Super Sluggers for Wii
-Rock Band Track Pack Vol. 2 for PS3

I was quite happy w/the prices as I wanted new copies of the games for the Club Nintendo/Tranfer codes and now I have tons of Wii Points again. :D

2 of the 3 stores had TONS of PSN cards ($20 and $50 ones) but they said they weren't on sale and if they wanted me to scan a card I'd HAVE TO purchase it. Argh.

If they DO go on sale soon, I'ma stock up.

[king18]

Some of you guys are idiots. Tons of good deals are happening but you gotta be smart and know what too look for. Or if you complain about the 10% off right now and skip until its 30% or higher, I assure you what ever you were interested in buying is gonna be gone. My CC around my area is already sold out of BD/DVD Players, most Home audio cables and power centers. As well as all ipods and MP3 players for that matter. Shits going quick, only thing not moving are 40" tv's and larger, which is understandable.

It all depends on who is doing the liquidating. From that abc report (youtube link), it's the same guys who did the liquidating for Linens n things. It took them forever to get to 40% off.

Maybe the area you live in just is populated by "idiots". Seriously youd rush out to Circuit City to save 10% off something? I get 10% off coupons from Best Buy every month and half the time I just throw them away. Because 10% means jack. And my Circuit City is well stocked still and everything is in neat order. Guess the city I live by people are holding out for the better deals.

Just cause they're sold out doesn't mean the deals were good. 10% off ipods may sound good for someone but I was able to get a 16 GB iPod Touch for $200 thanks to live.com cashback a few months ago. Doesnt sound like a good deal in my case

[ronfear]

Most people wouldn't even know a deal if it hit them in the face.

Here is an example of a good deal early on. I went in Saturday looking at this $999 50" Samsung that was on sale. The regular price was $1399. I bought it and received 10% off for a total of $899. The next day the TV was marked at the regular price of 1399 with 10% off. Even at 30% off it's more then my deal on day 1.
I also bought a 3 week old open box HP Laptop for $579 (679 on sale new) and i saw the same model in other stores after Saturday for 899 new and 799 open box.

Now maybe if you wait 3 or 4 weeks you can get deals that compare to these but from my past experience all the good stuff will be gone and you'll be looking at Junk Element TV's and crappy left over over priced notebooks.

Of course this doesn't apply to video games and i'll take my chances i can find Bioshock & LBP cheaper then 10% off.

[Dajinn]

This man speaks truth! You can find better deals on the anandtech forums which is where I got my 16gb touch for 175 shipped.

[xconguy]

I found some $20 psn cards marked as $30 normal but %30 off price $20 :P no joke
lmao dont lie man...cmon hahah woow sucks for people who fell for that one.:lol:

[gameboy280]

One of my friends who is a supervisor there said they actually marked up msrp 2% then dropped the 10% on everyone so really its only about an 8% savings currently. He also said the store around here (which there are 2) are going to start dropping to 20 and 30% off all items once the laptops are sold out.

This is exactly the mentality that is causing items to fly off the shelves at little to no discount .... "OMG, it's $2 off ... I could chance waiting until it's $10 off but it might be gone." In all honesty, there are hardly any good deals right now and there won't be until they drop to at least 40% ... sure there are deals if you only shop in a world where stores never have sales ... but dude, 10% ... that's like tax ... or shipping and ebay fees if you're flipping. The key to getting a deal is to balance the quantity with the right price ... nothing is the right price at the moment ... unless you have an insider at your CC or a percent generous cashier ...

[jrsmaster411]

Forgot to mention that I saw Rock Band for 59.99 which I picked up their for 10 dollars a few weeks back

[assyrianblood27]

Went today and asked are hard drives on sale they said yea 10%off n had RE4 for $12 for ps2 and MGS Collection for $18 great games but just waiting for more of a discount.

I'd rather buy nothing than buy something at 10% off MSRP. I can go get shit on Amazon for cheaper than that any day.

[Salamando3000]

Anyone happen to know how World of Warcraft time cards are affected? Seems like it could be a decent way to pick up some less-expensive game time.

A lot of people feel that "oh I wanted so and so items anyway so 10% HELL YEAH BUST OUT THE CREDIT CARDS WE GON SPEN' LIKE WE JUST GOT TAXES BACK!"

Seriously, anyone that rushes to save 10% is ridiculous. And yes, MAYBE it's a 100-150 off on a very expensive television...but just wait for a better deal, it WILL come along, It always does.

[CaoPi]

You should be buying Bioshock at Best Buy this Sunday for $29.99 minus $10 using the 2k games coupon.

Maybe there have been some decent deals on power centers and iPods and whatever else, but this is a game deal forum... 10% off MSRP translates to no tax and maybe another couple bucks off. At best, it's equivalent to just paying MSRP on Amazon and saving the tax and gas.

[FoxHoundADAM]

In the Tulsa OK store at 41st I went in to check is prices had dropped at all, they had not. But I decided to pick up some MS points for teh listed 10% off as I need some for the Fallout 3 DLC next week and figured 10% was about the best I'd get on those as they were almost out.

Went to the register with on 1600 card and it rang up 15.18 after tax. I quickly bought another one. I suppose they were really 25% off but not listed correctly. I'm going to by tonight to see if I can't get ann Wii point cards as well.

[nakanenui]

Maybe people are buying items due to the time sink of driving there, searching high and low for a good deal, not finding anything that constitutes a GOOD deal, then giving in to the hopelessness that they watsted over an hour and unless they buy something for 8% off MSRP then they have nothing to show for it. You would be surprised how many people fall into that category as consumers (or they have no deal hunting ability and are oblivious to internet deal sites). Lazy/ignorant people deserve to pay full price.

Sales tax down in Birmingham, AL is around 10%, so basically it would only be tax-free at the moment. That's why I'm waiting a bit.

I had the same experience on another item. Getting a PS3 next week (on the FedEx truck as we speak) and I needed some component cables. Almost ordered the set from Amazon for $20, but when I went into the Tampa CC, they had the Component AV/USB cable bundle marked down on clearance to $16. This is the same set that sells on Amazon for $35. It ended up ringing up at $11 and change.

Wonder how many other cases there are like that?

[NERV]

I picked up an Airport Express for $73 which I thought was a good deal since it normallly costs $99. It's working perfectly as a LAN adapter for my consoles and PCH

[ogbaka]

Maybe people are buying items due to the time sink of driving there, searching high and low for a good deal, not finding anything that constitutes a GOOD deal, then giving in to the hopelessness that they watsted over an hour and unless they buy something for 8% off MSRP then they have nothing to show for it. You would be surprised how many people fall into that category as consumers (or they have no deal hunting ability and are oblivious to internet deal sites). Lazy/ignorant people deserve to pay full price.


if you drive several times just to look, you'll spend more on gas and never buy anything... research first and than look saves time and money

that is the CAG way

[thebob101]

Went to the CC in Wheaton, MD and everything was 10% off except DVDs and CDs which were 20%. Found a couple of DVDs for my daughter,but that was it. It looked like everything was marked back up to MSRP. Wasn't really crowded, but then again this was 4:30 pm in the afternoon.

[DustoMan]

Bought a HP netbook last Saturday at the CC in Coon Rapids, MN. The liquidators hadn't arrived yet so managers were telling their associated to take 10% (some stores more) off everything. 10% off a $450 netbook isn't a bad deal at all so that's why I jumped on it.

[007]

I stopped in again last night and it was fairly obvious that the store itself had been pricing until the liquidators moved in. Games went back up to 10% instead of 20%, and accessories dropped down to 30%. Plus, everything actually scanned in the computer instead of being entered manually.

Anyway, I picked up a Wii Remote for about $27. Not the best deal, but it gives me a fourth remote and it was the last one they had. 360 and Wii accessories were wrecked beyond reason (since most had been gone when they were only 10% off), but the PS3 section was nearly untouched.

[oxidative]

Are the wireless Guitar Hero Les Paul for 360 still available for $20 or less? I remember them being on sale before CC failed but didn't get a chance to pick one up.

[solidusdeus]

I'm probably gonna stop by today and check out the MS point cards, see if they ring up as cheap as some people have posted.

[Nobi-Wan]

Tried to get some 800pt MS cards at mine. A sign on the wall said everything on it was 30% off but when I tried to ring up a couple of them they were taking only FIVE CENTS off. What a joke. I'm gonna wait a while.

[meilojelio]

They have Sims 2 delux for 4.99 - 10% and Quake wars 4.99 - 10% also Project Eden (used) 4.99 and Aeon flux xbox 4.90

[Km00n]

does anyone know the actual savings??? the last I heard there was a 10% savings or something like that. the closest CC to me in about a hour. I don't want to make the trip for only 10%

[LinkinPrime]

You could call. From what I hear it varies from store to store.

[sunnysky]

one of my co-workers just stopped and said there is nothing any good.
Clearly, all the good stuff was sold to re-sellers before the liquidation even started.
I'm just hoping I'll be able to find some Microsoft point cards for $14.99.

[tiffloon]

Well I went to the one in Gainesville, FL and everything is just 10% off, you could basically do better on Amazon.com. I am going to wait another week or so before I go back there and see. If anyone sees any better deals here please let me know. Thanks!

[007]

Though there is slight variation from store to store, it seems that once the liquidator moves in (big signs out front, official looking signs inside) that everything is 10%, with the exception of DVDs (still 20%, I believe) and game accessories (30%).

If your store isn't set-up that way yet, it's really up in the air. So, yeah, if you don't want to make the trip for only 10%, don't go yet. The only thing worth it at this point is game accessories, and those are mostly cleaned out at the majority of locations by now.

[Slim Gatsby]

Does anyone know if they're still stocking World of Warcraft timecards?

[h3llbring3r]

I really want a gears 2 LE. I will try ASAP but my GS has gone to ____. If anyone gets a spare you know what to do.

[kangchousa]

I just came back from the CCity store in Valencia, CA, and they had wiimotes, nunchucks, wiipoints cards in stock with 30% off.

[retromufc]

I'm probably gonna stop by today and check out the MS point cards, see if they ring up as cheap as some people have posted.

When you buy the cards, buy the ones in the plastic clamshell packaging. If you buy just the card they have to swipe them to activate them and you won't get a discount. I took up a 1600 in clamshell and an 800 just the card. The 1600 was reduced 30% while the plain card he had to swipe and it was still like $9.95 or something.

I picked up 3x 1600 cards for $13.99 and a rechargable 360 battery at $8.50 or something. I pricechecked other cards and even the 4000 points cards were at 30% and were around $34 or something.

[FlamedLiquid]

I'm probably gonna stop by today and check out the MS point cards, see if they ring up as cheap as some people have posted.

Please let me know your results if your store has a sign for 10% and they ring up 30%. perhaps mine is the same way.

[Km00n]

thanks guys! I guess I'll just call to see what's the scoop

[Bloomy]

CC in Tysons Corner, VA has games for 10%, though "social gaming" (Guitar Hero and Rock Band stuff) is 20%. CDs / DVDs are at 20%. Game accessories varied by platform, DS and 360 are 10%, PS2, PS3, PSP and Wii are 30%. XBLA points were cleaned out (there were just some 800 point cards left on Monday), though a few Gold subscription cards. No Wii points cards that I saw, there were a number of PSN cards.

Edit: There were also signs at the entrance saying "New merchandise arriving daily." Guess they might be shifting stuff from other, lower traffic stores.

[retromufc]

Edit: There were also signs at the entrance saying "New merchandise arriving daily." Guess they might be shifting stuff from other, lower traffic stores.

Mine had a sign that said the same thing. They are maybe trying to clear out warehouses or like you said, move stuff from other stores.

[WonkyToad]

My guess is they are trying to generate more buzz for the people that bought right away to come back again and buy more.

[kaskd]

I just checked in Hawaii for anyone interested the Guitar Hero World Tour Kits with the drums were priced at 151.00 About 20% off. Still not a good deal, gonna wait longer.

[outphase]

I am going to try my nearby CC to check for PSN cards. Those never go on sale like XBL cards.

[SmackmYackm]

In the Tulsa OK store at 41st I went in to check is prices had dropped at all, they had not. But I decided to pick up some MS points for teh listed 10% off as I need some for the Fallout 3 DLC next week and figured 10% was about the best I'd get on those as they were almost out.

Went to the register with on 1600 card and it rang up 15.18 after tax. I quickly bought another one. I suppose they were really 25% off but not listed correctly. I'm going to by tonight to see if I can't get ann Wii point cards as well.

Have you been out to the 71st Street store? It has to be getting rough by now. We went Saturday and it was a mad house. The 41st Street store? As of yesterday, business as usual. Strange.

I've been trying to drop in the 41st Street store at least every other day, if they raise the discount I'll shoot you a PM.

[Vinny]

I am going to try my nearby CC to check for PSN cards. Those never go on sale like XBL cards.

Wait, PSN cards get this discount? What about Wii Points?

[The Linguist]

Wii points cards are 30% off at my CC; they count as gaming accessories.

[Josef]

Wii points cards are 30% off at my CC; they count as gaming accessories.

Same at mine. They were marked 10% off but rang up 30% off ($13.99).

[Vinny]

Fuck! If I'd know that, I would have picked up some PSN/Wii Points.:bomb: Probably gone by now...:-(

[etcrane]

YMMV regarding PSN cards ... I tried buying some yesterday and they wouldn't give any discount at all ... but it really depends on the store and the clerk

[SmackmYackm]

Both CCs here still have all gaming items at 10%. The only real discounts are in CDs and DVDs at 20%. I don't think I saw anything for 30%, but then I was only looking at games and movies and CDs.

[Sharp Katana]

i just came back from my local CC and they had 30% off all gaming accessories. 20% off movies and 10% off games.

Picked up a 1600 point card didn't see any wii or psn cards. Would've liked to have grabbed one of each.

[Dr.Nick]

YMMV regarding PSN cards ... I tried buying some yesterday and they wouldn't give any discount at all ... but it really depends on the store and the clerk

Yeah no luck here either on the PSN cards. They're giving some excuse of it being a giftcard-like item like iTunes or gift/cash cards and therefore are unable to discount them. Yet wii points/microsoft points are unaffected probably because of their proprietary "points" system and are not same as cash.:cry:

Well, it DOES make sense, since those PSN cards are activated at the register, and Circuit City doesn't pay for them until they are sold to you and activated at the register.

So if you go up there, pay for one with 30% off, CC still has to fork over 20 bucks to Sony. Effectively screwing the company further than it's already screwed. Which, honestly, is fine by me. If you can get away with it, great, fuck em.

[ronfear]

Some vendors are owed so much money that they are trying to get a Letter of Authorization to pull their products out of stores themselves as payment. I have been on standby since Friday waiting to see if it goes through for a few companies that I can't disclose at this time.

[disillusion386]

went to the CC around the corner from my apartment after work and found 20% off cds/dvds/blu rays and 10% off everything else. i'll go back there again in 2 weeks or so, but i'm not holding my breath for any good deals.

[ronfear]

i picked up Mario Galaxy and STALKER SOC Prima guides for a penny each this week.

[PlayerXXX]

Went to CC to buy XBL and PSN points today. No discounts on either, even though they are considered game accessories which should have put them at 30% off. Wii points were eligible for the discount however. Makes no sense...

[air_max]

i suffered the same bad luck. went to cc, they had lots of psn cards $20 and $50, no discount offered.

ill go back in a few weeks and see if they put them on clearance yet.

[tightclaws]

This whole Thing has been a bust so far...

[Josef]

i suffered the same bad luck. went to cc, they had lots of psn cards $20 and $50, no discount offered.

Just curious, are those the cards that have to be activated at the register? If so, you may not see a discount on them.

[chuckywang]

Just curious, are those the cards that have to be activated at the register? If so, you may not see a discount on them.

Yes, they have to be activated. I'm not sure if their system allows you to get a discount on it at all.

[supershammy]

Guy at the front of a CC in SoCal said that big trucks will come with tons more merch; surely this will happen with all of them.

[metallicoholic]

May have gone a tad overboard, but I bought three 1600 XBL point cards for $45 total, so $15 a piece (which isn't the best price, but with the tax the way it is, that's the cheapest I can get right now). 30% was in effect. I would have bought some PSN cards if I had noticed them before I checked out.

This is in San Antonio, BTW.

[xxtheycallmedxx]

picked up Okami for the wii for $18,$19.50 after tax so I'm pleased

[oxidative]

Are the wireless Guitar Hero Les Paul for 360 still available for $20 or less? I remember them being on sale before CC failed but didn't get a chance to pick one up.

Answered my own question on my way home from work. At the Clackamas, OR CC, they were $40 - 20% = $34. They had a bunch left. I might try my luck in a couple weeks.

I think there might be hope left in humanity. I heard a few folks talking about how the % off things was pretty weak and they should just wait for it to drop or just wait for a sale at BB and have a return policy go along with their purchase. Yay! If anything good comes out of this crappy economy, it'll be smarter consumers...I hope :bouncy:

[Grecco]

They raised the prices in the local CC. Bizarre. Last Saturday when the liquidation started the GH 3 bundles were 45, went today they were 65

[CosmosTheMouse]

Guy at the front of a CC in SoCal said that big trucks will come with tons more merch; surely this will happen with all of them.

That's exactly the reverse of what I heard in Chicago.

I heard that it will be business as usual for a while (hardly any price changes till the last min), and the anything left that's not bought (by closing in March) will be returned back to where it originated from. Who knows though. Either way this "liquidation" really sucks hard.

[belal.rawi]

does any one know when cc trucks usually drop off new merch? I assume that cc has warehouses full of just that they're trying to shake.
Mine has ZERO TV's left - which by the way is stupid. not only is 10% still not a great deal, but they're price with 10% is still a rip off.

[mattstockton12]

Got the Eye of Judgment Pack for 20 even. Going to sell all but the camera. w00t.

[One4Deuce]

I was able to get the last 1600 Microsoft Point Card at the Circuit City in Burnsville, MN for $14.93 including tax. Came up with the 30% off without problem. There were many, many 800 point cards at $9.99 (I'm assuming the 30% will apply to those also but didn't check). I'll probably go back and buy one or two of those tomorrow.

[jazzman]

CC in Newport (Fashion Island) is out of MS points. :cry:

[Vinny]

Weak. I got back from my CC and they didn't have any Wii Points or PSN cards... and even if they did, they had signs up which said that accessories were only 10% off.:-(

[InvaderZim]

That's exactly the reverse of what I heard in Chicago.

I heard that it will be business as usual for a while (hardly any price changes till the last min), and the anything left that's not bought (by closing in March) will be returned back to where it originated from. Who knows though. Either way this "liquidation" really sucks hard.

They will not be returning anything... liquidation companies will sell it all - even chairs and shopping carts at the end. The merchandise that will be added is junk from other liquidation sales - about 500 wireless Wii sensor bars just showed up at my store.

[RatedRSuperstar]

My store won't be getting anymore trucks from the warehouse. But we will be receiving merch from other stores that our closing. Basically my store is doing the best in the area so everything is moved to it. Yet right now, we're still only are offering 10% off on everything. There are a lot of stupid people in my area.

[johnny3000]

i for get which company circuit city has bought out in canada... is it future shop or best buy?
i cant remember but any way is this going to affect them in any way?

PS. sorry if this quetion is said before (im to lazy to look through the thread)

[Nyx]

I just checked in Hawaii for anyone interested the Guitar Hero World Tour Kits with the drums were priced at 151.00 About 20% off. Still not a good deal, gonna wait longer.

Do you know how much accessories were? I went last Sun but everything was 10%. I wanted to pick up a 60GB HDD for my 360 and would bite if it was at least 30% off. Hopefully they still have some.

[Richard Longfellow]

They raised the prices in the local CC. Bizarre. Last Saturday when the liquidation started the GH 3 bundles were 45, went today they were 65

This confirms my calculations: Liquidators = Evil.

[alissima]

i went back last night for the second time since the announcement.. got a 2000 point wii card, 1600 xbox point card, and 3 month xbox live card, all for $13.99 each. will most likely go back for more later :)

[tenchi]

I've been meaning to pick up the new sony bluetooth headset. They didn't have any headsets there but I saw the socom bundle for $56 with 10% off. Since I just want the headset, do you think I can sell a sealed copy of Socom for $20-30?

[shibaraski]

im not enjoying this whole liquidation stuff

[EvilIA]

The liquidators finally showed up at my store. Signs everywhere. Things were much better marked. Mine had the 30% accessories (Class 381 only). I got wii Points and the PS3 Headset. I wanted to get live points but all they had was the 800 points cards for $9.95. I will just wait for another sale. Target seemed to have them often enough. If not TRU does the B1G1, I think these are in that sale. So I can wait it out. I just got my 360 for Christmas.

[Korben]

Please, tell us where you live so us smarties can avoid the area.

[DukeSoccer]

God!!! how is everyone getting point cards so cheap, CC by me (Wisconsin) only have 10%.

[deletion]

This confirms my calculations: Liquidators = Evil.

i feel the pain. our bundles went from 39.99 to 69.99. so i crossed the street to best buy and got the bundles for 39.99

[deletion]

God!!! how is everyone getting point cards so cheap, CC by me (Wisconsin) only have 10%.

i guess it's YMMV. the green bay CC is still only 10% on game accessories.

[omyard]

God!!! how is everyone getting point cards so cheap, CC by me (Wisconsin) only have 10%.

I think they're 30% every where. Have the cashier do a price check. The difference is the signing. My store originally had handwritten signs, but in the last few days they have official signage that says 30% on accessories.

I scored the last 4000 Live Points card for $35. They also had a lot of 1600 points cards too.

They had a lot of PSN cards, but I'm going to wait since they had so many. Maybe I'll be able to catch them at 50% off. No Wii Points cards though.

[nem2k2]

Hit up CC in San Jose (Stevens Creek), CA last night - heaps of XBL 1600 point cards for 20% off. Picked up 2

They had handwritten signs too; will check again this weekend and see if the discounts change (hopefully for the better :D)

[FoxHoundADAM]

God!!! how is everyone getting point cards so cheap, CC by me (Wisconsin) only have 10%.At my store the points were marked 10% off but rang up 40% off. Ask them to check the price for you.

Worked for both MS and Wii point cards.

[bug_nuts]

They had a lot of PSN cards, but I'm going to wait since they had so many. Maybe I'll be able to catch them at 50% off. No Wii Points cards though.

I do not think they will ever discount the PSN cards, the two places i went to used them as giftcards. or as a cash value! they are not like the XBL cards, the PSN need to be scanned then swiped with a $20 value.......

i hope they do go on sale... but the two stores i went to no discount :(

[dragonjud]

Stopped by the College Point CC this morning (Queens, NY). The MS points cards were gone, except for the 800 pts cards, which had a whole 5 cents of a discount:roll:. I tend to believe the higher value cards were 30% off before they were all gone.

The Wii points cards are 30% off, and there were quite a few left (maybe a dozen). Bought another Wii points card, although I already have too many Wii points, and already own everything I really want.:lol:

Everything else was still just 10% off on games. Noticed quite a few games marked up (especially in the psp section). The Rockband bundles were 20% off, but I think you can find better choices elsewhere. Also, it seems nobody is buying games at 10% off (even if the rest of the store seems cleaned out), as the entire game section was full as usual.

[sunnysky]

If your POINTS cards are on sale, but you hope for them to drop further. DON't WAIT. Pick them up now.
Maple Grove MN:
No Sony points anywhere.
No ITUNES cards anywhere.
The only MS points were 5-4000 point cards.
The guy in front of me grabbed two.
I grabbed two.
Went back a minute later, and the last one was gone as well.

[pilferk]

God!!! how is everyone getting point cards so cheap, CC by me (Wisconsin) only have 10%.

When I bought mine, the SIGN said 10%, but they gave me 30%....at ONE store (in Orange, CT). I originally was only going to pick up 1 1600 point card (needed it anyway, and wanted to see if they'd give me the discount). When I got the 30%, I "suddenly remembered" I could use a few 4000 point cards, too.

The Torrington, CT store refused to give me ANY discount on the cards, at all.

That was when they were keying in the discounts manually. NOW, I think everything is ringing through the POS system, so maybe it's more consistent and less YMMV.

[ChunkyB]

The points cards at the CC by me (Orem, UT) didn't have any discounts on points cards. They don't charge tax on them here, so they said they're not allowed to discount them. I was kind of disappointed when I went to the register and was told the sad news.

[sunnysky]

I wonder if there is a discount on IPODS.
Apple is SO against sales (as is BOSE), that I wouldn't be surprised if they weren't on sale at all. OR they didn't even have any.
It looked like my local store had a lot of them.
IPODS would be a HUGE find if you could get them at 30% off (Next week they will most likely increase the "up 10% off everything", to 20% off. Or with wishful thinking 30% off).

[omyard]

I do not think they will ever discount the PSN cards, the two places i went to used them as giftcards. or as a cash value! they are not like the XBL cards, the PSN need to be scanned then swiped with a $20 value.......

Ah, that sucks.

[Illini Jeeper]

Still lots of inventory in Champaign, IL. I'm going to wait for 50%.

[LinkinPrime]

Beware when buying points cards CAG's. Turns out someone bought a few PSN cards and they turned out to be sold without being activated. CAG tried to exchange them at the store but was refused.

If you do buy them, purchase them with a credit card, that way if anything shady happens you can dispute the charges with your credit card company.

Good luck!

Wow, I would be so pissed.
Tell him to contact Sony

[JP]

Point cards have to be activated?

[Galego23]

I haven't found one single worthwhile deal to the two Circuit City's I've been around to my house.... I find better deals on-line then bothering to wait a good 30mins to an hour on-line.

[GaMeReVX]

Point cards have to be activated?
If they're not in the clam-shell case, yes. Cashier has to scan both barcodes on the card in order for it to be activated.

[heyheyhey11]

Hey dragonjud, thanks for your info. Saved me time by not going there.

[JP]

If they're not in the clam-shell case, yes. Cashier has to scan both barcodes on the card in order for it to be activated.

Wow, I did not know that. Good think all the ones I had and the ones that are at the local Circuit City are in the clamshell cases.

[meilojelio]

1600 point cards yes

I would also love to get the PSN cards for 50% off. Mine (Kitsap) still has over 50 of them. But as others have said, anything that needs to be activated, most likely won't ever get a discount. I don't think they have to pay for the gift card ones until they are rang through the POS. Until then, it's a piece of plastic. The Wii points and the live cards that are blister pack work, because there is no activation invovled.

Mine never had accessories signage. But it did last night, "offical" looking signs. It rang in the register with the 30% off included. So if your there and don't see a sign, have them scan it.

[pob14]

I bought Resident Evil 4 Wii at CC today $14 bucks, I challenge anyone to find that game at any price.

Joking, right?

[xxtheycallmedxx]

Does anyone know the price a 16gb pro duo was before they went out of business?? I know the discount varies from store to store and the site is no longer up and my cc is too far way to there on a whim...

Thanks in advance

[crazydom2]

I bought Resident Evil 4 Wii at CC today $14 bucks, I challenge anyone to find that game at any price.

It was 10 bucks on Amazon on Black Friday.

[ITDEFX]

Hmm, I am glad I didn't buy any point cards considering that they weren't given any discounts :(

It's not CC, but about 2 weeks ago I bought a 13 month live card from Microcenter. I have NOT had time to take it out of it's claim shell. If I try it and it doesn't work..how can I prove that it doesn't work to the store?

Why would a printed microsoft code not work?

It's not the store's problem. It's one you would need to bring up with Microsoft.

[lVlasterchief]

Just came back from CC. There was a sign that said 10% off, but I went ahead to the register to check for the price.. Turns out it was more than 10%. I got my cards for about 13.99 IIRC. I didn't get a receipt. I guess it's because all sales are final? Managed to snag 3 1600 pnt cards. Yay!

I thought PSN cards were on sale too-- it's still full price for PSN.

speaking of retarded me and my pops were at CC yesterday and some people were talking about these two girls asking for job applications...
where they blonde?

You mean "Were"

[MSUHitman]

Wow, I did not know that. Good think all the ones I had and the ones that are at the local Circuit City are in the clamshell cases.

See the thing is though PS3 cards are just loose, no packaging.

[MSUHitman]

Because those games suck?

Probably because they are in the vacuums section (there is a handwritern vacuums sign behind the games.)

[knightbeauchamp]

I haven't found one single worthwhile deal to the two Circuit City's I've been around to my house.... I find better deals on-line then bothering to wait a good 30mins to an hour on-line.

i totally agree.. I just dont understand, I saw a tomtom one xl gps system on clearance for 140.00 newegg had this for 99.00 I really dont understand why the prices are higher and not lower? How do they benefit, unless idiots ar buying this thinking they are getting a better price and really are not.

Someone please explain this to me..

That's precisely it.

[azeru]

Nothing notable at my local CC, but I did spot a lone Platinum Gamecube bundle for the low price of $79.99!

[dennisb407]

Came back from the one closest to me again today...games still untouched, ton of 360,ps3, wii cards left as well as accessories.

Doesn't even look like the sale started 6 days ago.

[munch]

Damn, I need to see about getting some points cards.

[Thax]

My local Circuit City can't seem to make up their minds. On Sunday, games were all 20% off. Today, GH and RB bundles are 20% off, all other games are 10% off. The guy in the store said they had never been 20%, but I have the receipt from Sunday to prove it, not that it matters. Game accessories are 30% and about wiped out. PSN cards were full price.

[DKYang]

The only thing that was 30% off at the one I went to was used games. O.o

The general public doesn't know any better. They are easily tricked into thinking they are getting a good deal when they hear the words "Clearance" "Sale" or "Going out of Business"

[spiderman8576]

found hot shots golf (ps3) for $17 soo they still have clearance prices from before if you find those games + additional 10% off.

no luck on psn cards, in fact the cashier just threw it away and said they dont sell these anymore lol

[kentomaiku]

any one got any good deals for star ocean 1 psp and do they seem to be getting any new psp titles or what not thanks

[outphase]

My local CC (San Diego) did not have any PSN cards. There were a few Wii cards and even more XBL cards. Both were on sale 20%.

[GM80]

Just confirming from yet another store that Xbox points and Live subscription cards that are "pre-valued" (with a code, sealed in plastic shell) are indeed 30% off across the board.

The cards that have no value until activated (powered by FastCard) are NOT on sale because FastCard controls their price.

[jwbrown77]

thx GM80. Going to stop by on the way home and see if they have any sealed XBL cards left.

Quick question.

I'm trying to sell a new Panasonic HDTV I bought from CC a few years ago. It's a CRT and I never opened it. I bought a store warranty, which expires in a few weeks that I wanted to use as a selling point.

I know BB won't honor it, but is it possible to get another retailer to extend the warranty? I've heard folks speak about this in the past.

Also, which retailer is likely to do it? Thanks.

[Killbreed]

So for some reason I got a coupon from CC this week in the mail. I'm assuming they're no longer honoring them right?

[Ryouko]

Everything was still marked only 10% at the CC in Arlington, TX.

[brother bendu]

I just went to the circurt city in burbank IL and they had the xbox live points for 30% off. They did not display the discount so they had a bunch of them left (about 8 or more.) I got 2 for $30. Might be going there again soon.

I doubt you'd find another retailer willing to extend it-- look at the paperwork that you got when you purchased it, it should have the contact information for the company who really provides the warranty..

[etcrane]

Yep, point cards are 30% off, thanks to the poster who mentioned SJ (Stevens Creek), there were around 6 left as of this evening. I think we can pretty much confirm that there will be no discount on PSN or iTunes type cards due to the reasons mentioned above, but the sealed xbox live stuff is good to go as long as it's packaged. Now it's just a matter of waiting for the next percentage drop ... any insiders know about the timeline?

[jwbrown77]

bleh, no XBL cards at my CC (Irvine, CA).

They had 2000 point Wii cards...

Before this was posted I figured I'd at least TRY to see if two CCs in Richmond, VA (Short Pump and West Broad) would let them go for 30%. The first one just gave me the "We can't do it, it's the liquidators that mandate the prices". The second one (West Broad location)...I took two 800 points cards up to the register, asked beforehand "are these 30% off?" She said no, so I asked "well why doesn't it say that back there?" She replied "well we have a sheet right here." She reaches over to the side of the cash register and shows me this sign that says "the following items are excluded: iTunes Gift Cards, Firedog service, etc". Microsoft and XBOX are nowhere on the sheet. So I tell her the obvious. Her response "well whatever it comes up as is what we sell it for." So I walk out of the store. I decide this is my last stop on my trip out tonight, I'll just go talk to the manager of the store. So as soon as I walk back in the store, the girl from the register is eyeing me. As soon as I find another sales person on the floor, she starts talking into her mic, I'm assuming to the manager. So I walk up to this guy, explain to him the situation, and his only reply is "look man, we can't do it, don't blame us, blame the liquidators." My last words to him were "well you do realize your signs say "FROM 10%-30% OFF, not "up to 30% off"...anyway, thanks for your time." On our way out (I had two buddies with me), the girl that rang us up apparently said something like "bye dumbasses"...my friend didn't take to that so well. She came out screamin' "I WON'T TALKIN' TO YOU!!, HOW YOU KNOW WHO I WAS TALKIN' TO??". I laughed my head off, and finally left. I would have loved to have contested everything, but a) your post kind of nullifies that idea and b) it's just not worth it. Oh well, guess I'll have to shop around for some points cards.:roll:

I believe the Extended Warranty is backed by an outside company so it should be valid and probably can be extended.

[carnefice]

Everything was still marked only 10% at the CC in Arlington, TX.

Yeah I went out to that one today too and I'm disappointed. The CC in Fort Worth (Hulen) gaming accessories were 30% but mostly picked over when I was there yesterday. But I did manage to pick up 3 1600 Xbox live point cards cards for $14 each.

[Layd Dly]

Managed to score x3 Wii 2000 point cards for $13.99 each which isnt bad considering i never see them on sale, and i left the last 2 for someone else, all the MS cards were gone except for some 3 month cards.

I used to work at circuit city. "Extended service plans" as we called them, not warranties, are 3rd party. They almost always offer to extend them near expiration. So in answer to your question, call up the warranty number, and ask to extend it.

Hey, a local buddy. :) Didn't realize there was another CC left besides the Arlington one, good to know. The Arlington one still had a lot of games left, but as I said before, the discounts were really lame...

[genfuyung]

Hopefully I'll be able to pick up an xbla points card tomorrow. If anyone comes across an extra 1600pt card...let me know.

[The Linguist]

Possible evidence of restocking: My CC had a bunch of Wii points card on Weds. (at 30% off) but they were all gone last night when I stopped by. On a whim i swung by there today and they had more in stock. I really scoured the gaming section last night, so I don't think I just missed them.

[EvilIA]

**Snip** Oh well, guess I'll have to shop around for some points cards.:roll:

Did the sign mention anything else about gift cards such as the PSN cards. I didn't see an exclusion sign it would be good to know what that sign read.

I saw something similar, but it turns out that they had some wii point cards over by the wii fit/DS Accessories section. They took them from that end cap and put them with the rest of the wii stuff. I would like for them to stock more live or live points cards. But I don't see it happeneing.

On reflection. I did noticed more laptops then I had seen on sunday when I went.

[topdolla69]

I am pissed right now, I spent the early part of this week, arguing that the game accessories were 30% off and the games were 20% off. Well this was true on monday when I first went...Now as you may have seen I said that WAS true. Today I went and would you know that all the games were bumped down to only 10% off abd even certain games seemed to be a little overpriced, like warhawk with the mic, was priced at 60 with the 10% off. Cameras that should cost one price, with the percentages off, kinda rounded to what you would get it at bb or even cc before this whole liquidation started. this really sucks man, I f*cking hate liquidators!!!!!!!!!!

[TyranT]

The Circuit City by me in Katy, Texas at Katy Mills had Forza motor sport II with the steering wheel for I think 36 dollars. I didn't bite at the time but I will definitely go back soon and pick one up.

[Hodnes]

hey i live by katy mills too

im going back to bite on some deals now that its the weekend

[gomikeoh]

cleared out the wii points cards at circuit city. 13.99 is a good deal in my opinion. they will never go on sale, so time to stock up.

Thanks, guys. Luckily, I do still have all of the paperwork for the original sale, as well as the extended warranty.

I'll look into it and give it a shot.

[sleepydumbdude]

The evansville IN has wii point cards but no xbox live which is what I came there for :(

[kingotnw]

Didnt see any great deals in Minneapolis, MN. Guitar Hero stuff is all 20% off now. I'm waiting for it to get a little higher before I buy the world tour set so I have the drums.

[angsto2]

The 4 stores I checked in MN earlier this week had different discount levels, 2 stores were 10% off games (Woodbury, Maplewood) and 2 had 20% (Northtown, Maple Grove). The explanation was that "maybe the other stores were handled by a different liquidator. Circuit City has 4 different liquidation companies selling the stuff.

[MSUHitman]

I believe that's just a demo of Forza, not the actual game, with the wheel.

[needavacation]

I looked for point cards in Burlington, MA - customer service guys said very smugly that they do not discount point cards. They were not subject to 10% storewide discount. You had to ask customer service for these items.

[JP]

The evansville IN has wii point cards but no xbox live which is what I came there for :(

Sorry about that, I got the last 7 on Tuesday. Sadly, I've went through almost all of the points, and that's with giving one card away to my brother. There were Live Subscription cards yesterday though, around 6 of them at 10 AM.

The problem here being a) cards without clamshell packaging are regular price (as stated MANY times in this thread) and b) the people working in these stores will not have a job in a couple of weeks meaning they don't give a flying fuck if you get a discount on anything or even buy anything at all.

[Malik112099]

Anyone checked the Las Vegas area CC's? I want to go take a peak but think it will all be for nothing.

[gjmac2]

I heard a rumor that CC was going to make everything 30% off starting today (01/24/09). Can anyone confirm this as true or not?

Hmmmm...I might be willing to jump on some 30% off games, depending on what's available.

Wow, a couple other E-ville folks!

BTW...damn you, jp0213!!!! JK. I went yesterday around noon-ish and found nothing worthwhile for 360, PS3, or Blu-ray.

The only Xbox Live cards I saw were 1 month or 3 month. Still overpriced, like most everything left in the store.

[haphilli]

Hmmmm...I might be willing to jump on some 30% off games, depending on what's available.

No 30% off games in Columbus, OH. I just checked my local CC and I saw that there was a used Gears Of War for 54.99 then a 30% off. I promptly exited the store laughing.

Hold off on the buying guys the prices will gradually fall in a few weeks, the deals are crap right now.

[sunbound]

I went this morning, to the east side Madison store here and grabbed the fallout 3 collectors for $54+tax. I was going to buy the regular for that price on amazon anyways.

Unfortunately, the games and acc where still marked at 10%, even had them check on a few things.

Still 10% off at my store, which has been picked clean of nearly everything.

[kongfunk]

Springfield, PA still at 10%

[mmmend01]

went to the one near my house (houston tx) by almeda mall and the store was full of guiter hero, they had on endstands, floor stacks, everywhere in the store. kinda of funny, never seen that many gh. besides that store pretty much wiped clean. was looking at the blu-rays(20%off) and this guy full of movies and games was like wow this is the best deals i've seen in a long time, lol. by the way can anybody confrim 30% off everything, this sound like a good deal?

If you literally read the first three posts before yours you would know your answer.

[BladeZ]

No more Wii point cards in Hicksville, NY. I pikced up the last couple on the rack. MS points not discounted, as previously mentioned. They had tons of GHWT and RB2 bundles which is pretty decent at 20% off. Nothing else worth mentioning. Just TONS of idiots loading baskets of games at 10%, I just shook my head and stared in disbelief....

[Sharp Katana]

I heard a couple of guys looking through the games and mentioning how they marked them up for the liquidation lol. I'm glad there are some people who are aware of their scheme.

[kirkblitz]

went to my store yesterday. speakers/dvds are all gone. so is the mexican music.

the tv's cost 200 more then the same model at BB and the games just NOW went 10% off. they've got a lot to sell! consoles are gone and went at normal price btw

[Kfoster1979]

Roanoke, VA... So Maybe people aren't as dumb as I thought. Tons of stuff TVs, DVDs, Blu Rays, CDs, and games. Nothing that is 10% is moving, but all game accessories are 30% so I picked up 3 Wii points cards.

[Mr Peanut]

10% off most things didn't really appeal to me.

There was 30% off game accessories, so I just got a Nyko Perfect Shot to get rid of the $10 gift card I had.

[crewj]

picked up the last (at least the only one i found) wii points card in cc. this was in norridge, il. 13 + tax

everything is pretty much 10% movies were 20% some other stuff... were 30%

[slidewayz88]

I stopped by my CC in Arkansas and picked up 1600 MS Points for $12.99 & 3 Month Xbox Live Starter kit for $13.99.

[xenoman80]

i wanna ipod touch but 10% just seems to just take off the tax and nothing more

[Lord_Zath]

Got the last wii points card for 15 after tax in Gurnee, IL. PS3 section still full of games. Accessories 30%, games 10%, blu-ray 10%, dvd 20%. Almost picked up a RB cymbal pack, but with 4 left, figured I'd wait to see what happened.

There were TONS of MS point cards (which did ring up at 30% off - guess no one else knows about them), as well as PSN cards that still came up at full price - because they're "cash" I was told. Rats!

They also had several HTIB and other home audio stuff for 10% off. CD's 20% off. So prettymuch worthless right now.

[FBMrider86]

The problem here being a) cards without clamshell packaging are regular price (as stated MANY times in this thread) and b) the people working in these stores will not have a job in a couple of weeks meaning they don't give a flying fuck if you get a discount on anything or even buy anything at all.

And yet they do care enough to make sure that a customer that came to their store to buy something for a discounted price they advertise is promptly dealt with like complete sh*t. Wow, CC really DOES care.

[Shampy]

Picked up the Fallout 3 LE guide for 25 and 2 1600 cards for 14 a piece. This was in Miami.

[Furashu]

pretty much most stuff in San Diego Clairemont's CC is 10% off, Game Acc are 30%, movies+ cds are 20%, tvs are 15%, still crappy deals.

[RatedRSuperstar]

As others have probably said by now, you do realize that these people are out of a job by possibly March and that they're in 'I don't give a shit' mode right now, right?

While some have the "I don't give a shit mentality", the reality is that if we don't follow the liquidators instructions to a T, they'll fire us on the spot.

[VioletArrows]

Went to the Palm Bay, FL one and came back out empty handed. I grabbed the last WoW card they had, and then put it back when it came out to exactly the same price as retail. The taxes here kill every would-be deal in the store. Goddamn, I hate this place, and Circuit City. ALL of the prepaid cards are gone. All the 30% off used games are gone, and all of the regular games are there at retail-10%. I have a good feeling that they're going to be shipping a LOT of stuff somewhere else by the end.

[BowserClownCar]

Here in OH:

30% Off:
Cables
Game acessories
Furniture and tv mounting equipment
Most car installation stuff

20% off:
DVDs and Blu-ray
CDs
Social gaming sets (Rockband, Guitar hero, quiz show games)
Camera and ipod accessories (excluding SD cards)

15% off:
TVs

10% off:
Everything else

[Pootie Thang]

I walked into my local CC (92nd and Sheridan in Westminster, CO) and I was told I can't shop there and they tried to kick me out as I entered the front doors. Why, might you ask? Because some Asian guy earlier in the day who works for a competing company tried to have customers shop with them instead. Anyways, they basically told me I couldn't shop there because I was Asian and we're all the same. Fucking ridiculous I've never been more pissed as I was when they told me that.

Damn I wish that would happen to me...I would be on Eyewitness news reallllllll quick. lol

I walked into my local CC (92nd and Sheridan in Westminster, CO) and I was told I can't shop there and they tried to kick me out as I entered the front doors. Why, might you ask?

After reading this thread since the first day of CC bankruptcy and common confirmations of 30% off game accessories which could be applied to my much needed ms points I rushed to my local CC in Miami, FL. I found 20% off dvds and 10%!!! OFF signs over my beloved MS Point card wall that was fully stocked. GODDAMN YOU CIRCUIT CITY!

I got Sly Cooper 2 for about $8. EVERYONE was there buying video games like there's no tomorrow. 10%? I'm looking at these people thinking "Thank god I found CAG, I get these games at fractions of the original prices". ;)

Also, any time I go to CC the employees have no idea what they're talking about, and are completely unproffesional. Just be glad they're even there to ring you up.
