we know.

Amazon and Newegg will be my new go to places.

Was it a good store or just Circuit City for leafs?

RIP Linus. How will he fund the linux project now?

Is it Circuit City all over again but for the leafs??
Where were you when Circuit City died, man it was fucking depressing one time over here in a store near Houston.

I wonder when Microcenter will go out of business

NCIX is not nearly as big as CC, and they didn't have all that many stores.

It probably was a mistake for them to open a bunch of physical stores in Toronto-area (in the year 2009, long after brick-and-mortar tech retailers started going bust) and encroach on Canada Computers' turf. They should have just concentrated on web sales.

Never ever, Fry's Electronics will go first if it would be the case.

I have never once purchased a PC part from a Store.
After seeing a hd5970 for $1,200 at best buy, I realized stores are a damn rip off.
Got one off Newegg for $400 soon after.

>that feel when your lowly cuck boy employee used YouTube as a platform to elevate himself on your dollar, and now he's riding the money wave while you file for bankruptcy
must feel bad man

Hope those mapleniggers at NCIX tech tips all get fired.

you've never heard of microcenter then

Which CC was this? Mine was the South Houston across from Almeda mall.

Hopefully never. My local one is clean, well lit, well stocked, employees are present and actually helpful, and people actually shop there. If a retailer is smart, they can still do well.

this is the fate of all who hire a lying faggot like linus

Probably "Memory Express", which is a good store.

Woops, that was meant for

Can't wait for the LinusTechTips bubble to burst, too.

Why though? Fry's offers things beyond just computers.

Is this CompUSA all over again?

LinusTechTips works for LinusTechTips you stupid niggerfaggots.

You mean TigerDirect?

So that's what happened...

Bad business decisions

Shoulda had Gibbs sponsor them.

Almost never do I see Canadian computer stores have better deals than Newegg. And Newegg's warehouse is super close to me. Most items I get free next-day delivery. I don't know how any of these companies are gonna survive.

No kidding, they're based in my city but I only ever ordered from them online.

>I don't know how any of these companies are gonna survive
They probably won't.
Amazon, Newegg, ex are taking over.
No one wants to deal with the middle man.

I've never been to a microcontroller that wasn't packed. It has too many deals for normies and tech lovers for that to ever happen. It helps that the staff actual knows what they're talking about.
