CompUSA to Shut Down After Holidays

My biggest problem is that my last positive customer experience at a CompUSA store was about 10 years ago in Houston, TX.

The store I went to in the Washington, DC area tried to pull a "bait-and-switch" on me TWICE, once tried to prevent me from leaving the store without submitting to a search (I hadn't bought anything because they were sold out of something I NEEDED, and no, I didn't set off the electronic monitoring thing at the door, and no they weren't polite about it.

I actually went out of my way to go to the local CompUSA here in Little Rock, AR BECAUSE I felt sorry for them. I figured the employees probably didn't get told first, the investors did, and the employees found out about it by hearing it through the media, just like I did. By the time I left, I had been so poorly treated and was so mad that I stopped the manager and told him that he and his employees were getting what they deserved.

No warning here. One day two were open here and next day closed. No chance to get any good deals.
