Are all Good Guys becoming CompUSA's? or are the consolodating, and only using existing CompUSA buildings?

Is it just the California ones?

doubleurx · 2005-10-13, 09:37 AM

Reno also made the list.

Well compusa bought gg a while ago. However the previous owner (Carlos) still ran things. Last tuesday we all showed up to work and found out that Carlos has become too money hungry to keep running things. So he handed over control to compusa. They in turn decided we were no longer worth the money and closed every single store except one. The one store remaining open will get everyones leftovers from california. Reno will stay open until all of our merch is liquidated.

every thursday the discount gets deeper. it started last week at 10-30% as of this week i believe its at 10-40%. we close officially december 3-4th depending on what merch is left. at the final week the store will be @ 90% off retail. however the liquidator doesnt believe we will make it that long.

the install bay closed the first week so i have been put on the floor to sell whatever i can. since i dont get commission i havent sold shit cause i could care less. i hand all the naggin ass customers that bug me over to sales managers that make the best %.

it sucks but life goes on. i have no idea when ill be able to start coming to meets. my life has been mostly fuckered since it happened.

That's some weak shit Phil... hopefully you can find a non-sales type job ASAP.

So are you guys discounting the Eclipse stuff? I might have to come take a look.

I was curious too, so I called. Right now discounts are at:

car audio - 25%
home theatre (tv's) - 10%
cabling - 25%

Wow that sucks. It's cool that crap is gonna be cheaper but it's not really worth it, I mean because of the outcome and stuff.
