Circuit City Returns Under Systemax

Posted by Soulskill on from the part-two-the-revenge dept.

animeking503 was one of several readers to send word that after closing its doors earlier this year, CircuitCity.com is alive and kicking once again. Systemax Inc., the company that owns TigerDirect and CompUSA, purchased the Circuit City e-commerce brand name last month, and has now re-launched the website with promises of lower prices and better service. The Consumerist points out that the new site's return policies leave something to be desired.

    Why shops at retail stores for electronics anymore?

  2. Tiget Direct == Better Customer Service? by lsommerer · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Really? The Tiger Direct people are going to improve someone's customer service? I stopped buying from them nearly a decade ago. Are they any easier to work with now?

  3. Why would you want the Circuit City brand name? by LordNimon · · Score: 5, Insightful

    To me, the Circuit City brand represents high prices and bad service. I don't understand why anyone would want the Circuit City name. It's tainted.
