I heard the name of the new company would be “City Block”. Catchy huh?

Well, maybe Radio Shack isn’t exactly the one looked at Circuit City...

You picked that one. But their sales force is decimated.

I don’t see a good fit with these two.

I was shocked during my last visit to Circuit City. Store in a shambles, low/outdated inventory, bare shelves ‘cos they apparently can’t afford new stock.

I get tired on their sales gerbils but it is an alternative to Best Buy. If Blockbuster takes over I will have to go Internet-only!

It is the economic equivalent Amalgamated Horse Carriages merging with Buggy Whips, Inc. Also, like a blind man marrying a cripple.

Interesting. Blockbuster knows it’s days are numbered. This play to get into a broader retail may be a way to have a future.
