As of today, Circuit City is no more. I used to work there, back when they still paid commission, they employees had to take product exams before they could sell, and they really wanted to help you. During my time there, they decided to get rid of major appliance. Maybe that was the beginning of the end for them. They could no longer compete with Best Buy, Lowes, etc. Shortly after, they did away with commissioned sales positions, and I think that was really what did them in. Now, instead of being a knowledgeable salesperson, their employees were just hourly workers, who didn't really care much about helping you (much like Best Buy employees). It's been a little sad to see the place continually go downhill, until today, when they are officially closed. Now, the only choice is Best Buy, and that's just too bad.
