Very cool! Loved hearing SunSpots voice talent Charlie Glaize doing the voiceover at one point. I learned the voiceover "smile" from listening to Charlie do those Circuit commercials on tv and radio.
"The "Circuit City" brand is now owned by Systemax, which uses the brand to sell electronics as an online retailer. On May 11, 2009, Systemax bought the brand, trademark and e-commerce business at an auction from Circuit City Stores, Inc. Systemax had earlier acquired CompUSA and TigerDirect which now operate as online retailers. Systemax in April 2009 signed a stalking horse agreement for $6.5 million which is an initial offer for a bankrupt company's assets." ~Wikipedia
Many thanks for posting this! The "anthem" commercial from 1989 is one of the best ever done (starts at 00:59 and runs to about 1:12). Does anybody have the full version of "just" that?
electronics where made better in the 70's 80's 90s & they cost more too and they lasted longer the stuff they made now don't even last 5 yrs circuitcity was one of the best stores in the 90's i dont remember there being a best buy where i live in until the late 90's
I've always liked Best Buy better. It wasn't so much a pricing issue, just a better selection of merchandise and a more fun atmosphere. They are closing the Circuit City at the Mall of GA and discounting all their merchandise. 30% off, whooptie-do! I can get a better deal on the same electronics on a regular friggin' sale day at other stores. I walked out so disgusted and glad they were closing.
This, by far, is the best Circuit City ad campaign, the music and the song gets into your head and you can't stop singing it!

no worry with your warranty we never had in house warranty they were always backed third party by Assurant Solutions
that was a sale associate not a manager
it's pronounced chowda! i like boston accents
So then technically, they're not out of business (though their stores have already been liquidated)..right?
LOL...sorry couldnt help myself...lmao..
