Providing the same comprehensive, sensitive, incisive, caring, compassionate, friendly service that has marked their entire "career", of course.

They really had pretty bad service. I remember there being 5, 6 or 7 people on line and one cashier open, but 3 people in their little office. Still, it was better than Circuit City. I have a lot of stories about them, but I'll save them for when Circuit City closes down.

Nevertheless, I plan to visit the Indianapolis store during their Store Closing Sale. Who knows? I might find something I never knew I needed.

I've always found the Kansas City store to have excellent service although the Wichita store was mixed.  Maybe there will be some real deals to be had!

It would be most appropriate for them to have a tent sale. Get it?

Problem with CompUSucks closing here is the deals on supplies and certain hardware like replacement hard drives or mices, etc.... With CompUSA being the only really big computer store here, getting parts and supplies will cost more going to the smaller stores.  I guess there will be more online shopping for me.  Groaner.gif

First, glad to hear/read that you escaped most of the 'extra' water recently sighted in Paradise! wink.gif

Second, do most of the Internet sales places charge extra for shipping there? Granted, "free shipping" is usually 5 business days, but many use FedEx (and others) for faster service depending on the price/profit margin. If you have to pay more, I guess it's just part of the 'premium' fee for living in Paradise! dntknw.gif Most everything seemed much more expensive there but I assumed that was because most of the stuff came from California where everything is already more expensive! eek2.gif
