I purchased a Sony Walkman MP3 player online from CircuitCity.com. It showed available so I ordered 2. I didn't want to wait for Black Friday because I really wanted these MP3 players advertized at $80.00 off reg. price only $49.99 with an emusic Gift Card for $.01 each. I got a confirmation e-mail on 11/27/08 @ 612pm I checked CircuitCity.com on Black Friday to see if the price went down and saw the item soldout so I was happy I bought it on Thursday. Then Friday night 11/28/09 @ 848pm I got another e-mail that my order was ready to ship and that 1 box shipped with a tracking number. Thinking all is good I didn't think about it again until on 11/29/08 1002pm and another e-mail @ 1018pm both stated they were sorry to tell me the item(s) were outof stock. I called circuitcity.com Customer Support at 1-800-593-4361 and was given a case numbe and told to call back on Monday 12/02/08 after several calls I got transfered to corporate and was told there was nothing they could or would do about it.

At the same time I was on the phone ith them I searched their web-ste and found the same Sony Walkman MP3 player available for sale at $119.99 the customer service agent said that I should buy it at that price since it shows available. What a rip-off, they flat refused to sell me the item at the internet sale price of $49.99 and the price didn't change until today 12/01/08 I consider this a SCAM a rip-off and will never buy from them. I always considered CircuitCity before I would (((Redacted))) or any other electronics store. I will not anymore.

sorry, allowing you to give a competitors name would instigate others to just file against their competition, to only come back later to suggest their company your comments on this policy are welcome!

Sorry to tell you but Circuit City has filed for Chapter 11. And they have never accepted the online price at the stores. There are better stores out there.
