How can the Circuit City closing not be the biggest news? It affected so many parts of our daily CAG lives - from weakening sales prices at its competitors to removing a reliable source of clearance games to Best Buy removing its 110% price match guarantee (and making it only 100%). Plus, let's not forget the many many CAGs who lost their main source of employment.
The death of Circuit City was the death of real competition in the electronics retail space, which is bad for people like us who are looking for the lowest prices.
Yeah, the ECA fisaco sucked. But at this point, it doesn't even affect my buying patterns. Circuit City's demise still does.
