Circuit City Bought Out by Systemax Inc., Relaunching as Online Store

Circuit City's Back! And Relaunching as Online Store

May 21, 2009

It's been a few months since we saw the tech giant Circuit City file for bankruptcy and then shutter all of its stores.

Well dry your tears, because it's being resurrected, so to speak: the company Systemax Inc. has bought out the website and brand name of Circuit City, and is relaunching CircuitCity.com.

There's no word of actual stores, but the website — coming to you in a matter of days — sounds like it'll be a nice competitor for Amazon, since it'll offer lower prices, a bigger selection, and faster and cheaper shipping than it did before.

Circuit City should have just stayed in the ashes. Best Buy Rules!!!

I knew that the Circuit City name would not vanish for all time. I hope that Best Buy will be truly put at crush depth for there revenue and out of business for the way that the company treats customers and employees. Systemax does not need to invest in that undertaking. It is not if Best Buy will go under, but when will it happen. If retail companies have honest CEOs and treat the customers and employees fairly they will continue. Making fair profits not short huge profits.
