Content: CBS News' analysis attributed this to stores becoming too big, and therefore too impersonal, as well as the fact that it stopped paying commissions to its sales team. When the financial crisis struck, Circuit City began closing stories and laying off its employees, and eventually closed due to bankruptcy. BRUCE BISPING/Star Tribune // Getty Images
CompUSA
- Category: electronics
- Year founded: 1984
- Year defunct: 2012
- Lifetime: 28 years
CompUSA, a consumer electronics retailer, went out of business back in 2007 after prices dropped on its most lucrative product, personal computers. With the rise of stores like Best Buy, CompUSA struggled to make ends meet. They eventually filed for bankruptcy and sold their 103 stores. That is, until they made a brief comeback with a revamped sales approach, which also failed.
