Sorry, Circuit City.

This could have been yours--your sale and commission, that is.

I planned the replacement of my car radio right down to picking it out on your Web site. And I was more than happy do it, because the scanner/printer you recommended to me a year earlier has proven to be a dream come true. But now you've not only decided to increase profits by replacing your sales staff with cheaper labor, you BRAGGED about it publicly. If that's how much business sense you have, it would be the height of folly to continue to trust your judgment. So I purchased my radio from Best Buy instead. Sorry. But not as sorry as you.

P.S. I bought the radio after taking my car in for a vehicle inspection. I start reading a newspaper while waiting for the radio to be installed, and come across a story about rapper Method Man being busted with nearly an ounce of pot in his car. Had he been snitched on, or been observed making the buy? Nah--while he waiting to get through a toll booth, the cops on duty noticed that Method's CAR INSPECTION STICKER WAS EXPIRED! Had it not been for that, they most likely wouldn't have looked at him twice. What a thing to read on the very day you get your own car inspected, LOL! Well, let that be a lesson to you!
:rofl:

2. I believe their profits have already dropped over 30 percent
-especially in the area of high-def TVs- their new entry level staff doesn't have the expertise to advise consumers on the products, so people are walking back out their doors in droves.

This is the SECOND time they've pulled this stunt, BTW. You'd think they would have learned the lesson the first time 'round.

4. If you drink a little booze and say their name, it comes out more accurately:
"Shircuit Shitty".
