Sure enough, CircuitCity.com is back up and ready to sell you some electronic wares. Systemax, the same parent company of Tiger Direct and CompUSA.com, scooped up the bankrupt brand a few weeks ago and just relaunched the site this morning. Too bad that the original company went down in glorious fashion and took 35,000 American jobs with it. At least this new site has some great deals. Serious.
Just check out the deals on the front page: 1TB external hard drive for $89, a BlackBerry Curve for $19, and a GE digicam for $49. Maybe if the original Circuit City had such deal, they would still be in business.
2 years ago I purchased a 60 inch tv from Circuit City and also purchased an extended coverage package that was good till 2011. How do I get in touch with someone regarding this coverage. I need someone to look at the TV. Am I still covered by this insurance policy? Please advise.
The warranties are done through Assurant and you are still covered (I worked at Circuit City). The phone number in your original documentation should still be good (the number has always been for Assurant anyway). If the number doesn’t work for some reason, google “Assurant Warranty customer service number” and you should be able to find it.
Hope that helps.
