[quote=“Jon,post:19,topic:25228"”] It would be nice for Frys to open in this area,in its place. [/quote] Or a Costco, they make BJ’s wholesale club look like the piece of shit that it is. Or an Ikea. There are so many awesome stores with great prices out there that aren’t around here. ---

It was a great place to just wander around in. I buy most of my PC stuff from Newegg, but it was the place to go if I needed something asap, or to get one of their 5 dollar keyboards. ---

[quote=“DrDoS,post:2,topic:25228"”] yup its confirmed still have friends that work there back when i did. [/quote] I opened the place. During the grand opening, I was a head cashier and cashed out the first schmuck… And every manager when it opened was an idiot. It only got worse when Computer City aka Computer Shitty closed and they came over. I hated the place. Plus they NEVER had deals.
