CompUSA — down the tubes

p2pnet news | Product News:-P2P:- “Some of my worst retail memories are of moments spent at CompUSA.,” posts Michael Arrington on TechCrunch, going on:

“Bad prices. Bad selection. Customer anti-service. Don’t even think about returns.”

But all that’s about to be over.

Says the Wall Street Journal:

” Mexican telephone and retail magnate Carlos Slim, in a rare defeat, will exit the U.S. consumer electronics market, shutting the last 100 CompUSA Inc. stores after sinking about $2 billion into the business.

“Gordon Brothers Group, a Boston-based retail store liquidator, will oversee a piecemeal sale of the Dallas-based business, the company said in a statement. Financial terms were not disclosed. Stores will remain open through year-end under the supervision of Gordon Brothers, which will also negotiate the sale of real estate and other assets.”

Say no more.
