They consistantly priced themselves higher then Circuit City and Bestbuy. It's no wonder that those two companies are thriving inspite of NewEgg's growth. This is the result of CompUSA’s own doing.

It also failed because of it's emploees who were often paid commission. There was also a lack of employees to help customers from my own experience.

How many times would they have an unbelievable sale price on some tech item. You head to the store immediately only to find out that that they were out of stock and had not had any in stock for several weeks. After the fifth or sixth time, I gave up on them.

It was the happiest day of my life. Could this be the beginning of a trend where brick & mortar goes the way of the brick cellphone? I hope not.

Why don't we make this post a contribution to what was and hopefully what will remain one of the greatest computer-related chains of all time. HERE HERE!!, TO COMPUSA!!
