Sony trucks literally turn around to stop Circuit City shipments

November 01, 2008 in News comments 9

Circuit City is being sent product from Sony, however the truck is stopped on its way to the store as Circuit City's credit is no good.... burrrrnnnn.

Circuit City took a major blow today, according to a reliable inside source, when Sony's merchandise that was being delivered to nationwide Circuit City distribution centers was stopped in transit and ordered to return to Sony "among worries that Circuit City couldn't pay for the shipments." This development means that Circuit City is not getting any Sony products replenished until they are able to convince Sony that their credit line is reliable. And with as bad as things are looking for Circuit City at the moment, that day may never come.

      Yeah that's the sad part. It means that people can't buy their things at Circuit City

      (Did you do that, Krunal?)

    Well, their stock is, like, $0.21 cents a share, and to be honest, I'd rather spend that money on a BK Stacker instead.

    The only thing about this that bothers me is that I bought my TV at Circuit City. Not a particularly big deal, but I also bought the protection plan. Which I have another year on. Now I rather doubt anything bad would happen to my TV. But I would hate to be wrong and be SOL because the company I bought it from crapped the bed.

    Other than that meh, Circuit City is rather crappy for electronics anyway. I think I will stick with Fry's from now on. Better deals and more inventory anyway.
