Replying to: andeet (Dec 19, 2008 11:16 pm) I know there are like 70 pages of posts, but I can't seem to find an answer to my question. How can CarMax sell a "NEW" car for like $5,000-$8,000 LESS than the dealer does? I've tried to get the answer out of the sales staff at a few different locations, but they won't say anything. They just keep saying, "Come on in and I'll give you an ever BETTER deal than what the internet price shows." Are the "NEW" cars being sold, factory rejects? Had some damage on the way to the dealer? ?!?!?!?!

Circuit City officially is over. My local CC, was packed though out the whole weekend. I haven't seen the parking lot so full since they opened the doors back in '98 or '99. Didn't help the fact, Best Buy is next door. They marked everything down to 30% off in the store. I would of bought a TV but I have more serious problems to repair first. Like my car accident crashed Scion tC (not my fault.) I wonder what is Carmax headquarters was thinking about since they filed bankruptcy? I'm going to guess "Thank God, we branched away when we did." Anyway, my Carmax was sweating few months ago. There was small article in the city's newspaper stating a Illinois car dealership tycoon is in the process of buying a business for the hot location and build new Honda dealership. Well, its been very quiet. I wonder if the economy changed his mind?

Replying to: andeet (Jan 18, 2009 2:34 pm) Our local Circuit City was also packed but what astonished me is that they discounted merchandise a paltry 10% and people were buying it! Don't people know what liquidation means? tidester, host SUVs and Smart Shopper

Replying to: tidester (Jan 18, 2009 11:18 pm) Now if everyone just stayed away until they REALLY dropped prices. But alas, when it gets to 70% off, only junk will be left.
