i think im thinking just micro, not central.
my bad.
i do most of my purchases on newegg.com unless a fry's price by chance is the same or cheaper.
slickdeals + newegg = good deals.

otakuapprentice · January 31, 2009, 02:45:33 PM

Only thing I don't like about Frys is they don't carry any standalone Pico-ITX mobos(and even then, they are still damn costly)

JTchinoy · January 31, 2009, 06:46:27 PM

pico itx? that's a new one to me o.0
is that for those box computers?

Well, I just achieved "Wii-ness" for 20% off at the Buena Park C,C.

Jerry · February 02, 2009, 01:30:25 PM

yah video games are now 20% in our area too (San Jose and bay area)

you figure theyre going to raise discounts (i'm guessing about 10% a week until they reach around the 40~50% mark or so. )

its pretty rare to get good discounts on recent games.

that or waiting til Blu-Ray is around 40~50% off too. :P

That should not be surprising, and a number of us were expecting it. That's how liquidators operate. They jack prices back up to MSRP and then gradually lower them over time.

LordKefka · February 07, 2009, 12:31:48 PM

Pretty much most of their crap is bull atm....MOST, not all.

I went yesterday to go buy 2 things: Rock Band 2 for the PS3 and a wireless guitar. Both cost me $100 total I guess. Everything else though.... ugh...

Not saying I got "zomg best dealz in the world!" type of thing, but it's cheaper than BB that's for sure and getting it online is around the same price ($42 for the Rock Band 2 game). The guitar, I just wanted the newer one...

Jerry · February 17, 2009, 04:44:40 PM

random bump.

even tho their totally gone i think by this post.

The Sunnyvale CA location had $200 wii's $150 xbox360 [arcade] and wii fit for like $85 [with yoga mat]

and i think after this weekend, most video games, dvds, and blu rays- are up to 40% off [at most of the locations ive been to]

selection is crap, maybe maybe some of you might something worth while. :P

SOawesomeness · February 17, 2009, 09:02:49 PM

I bought $16-ish 50-pk DVD+Rs and a $16-ish Skullcandy LowRider... so yay. (:

Every time I see or hear Skullcandy, I keep thinking of candy shaped skulls or peanut butter shaped skulls covered in chocolate.

but i hear they also make good earphones. but why stick candy in your ears? :P

Ouch, I'm sorry to hear that. I almost went back to CC for some laptop shopping.
Maybe I should browse online.

Bad news, they are still only 10% off. I'm surprised they still don't have a pile of computers to dump. Some of the stores in my area still have lots of T.V.s new in the box that aren't moving at 25-30% off.

try contacting the manufacturer, it should still be under warranty because even tho circuit city wont do crap, hopefully the manufacturer will.

Good luck with that!

LordKefka · February 24, 2009, 09:12:45 PM

Went to CC today. The one near me is so worthless. They are selling a 1Tb external HDD for $209. I just lol'd.

Stormfalcon · February 27, 2009, 08:52:55 PM

Oh, here's another thing to be wary of: If you buy something and it's broken, you're stuck with it. Again, not surprising, but definitely something to be aware of.

Stormfalcon · March 07, 2009, 07:40:58 AM

And this weekend is bye-bye time for Circuit City. After Sunday, no more CC.
