Circuit City BF rumor: $20 DVD Players


Recommended Posts

Posted

Our local Circuit City store in the Milwaukee area just recieved Pallets full of DVD players. I am told that they will sell for $20 on BF

Just be very, *very* careful when it comes to buying cheap dvd players - you get what you pay for.

 

It looks like the Oritron player from KM is a discontinued model that KM must have bought a boatload of. I'm not even 100% sure if they are still in business and what kind of business they are by looking at their very poor website.

 

Would just hate for a bunch of people here to buy these and have them go bust by Feb. with no way to get them fixed . . .

 

We'll see what CC ends up with though.

I have an Oritron that we got about 8 years ago. Has outlasted all others that we have gotten. Including the extremely expensive 5 disk changer that we got 4 years ago. The Oritron is still going strong. Only problem is we lost the remote in a move about 7 years ago and it is the only way to go through the menu to get to things like special features. But that is our fault, not the DVD players. Don't know about service on them though, as we have never needed it.

But, we could just be the lucky one and have gotten the only good one they ever made. Who knows...

My sister and I got $17 DVD players last year on BF at Circuit City. We didn't even know about them, CC was out last stop. We just saw stacks and stacks of them and we snatched them up. It was $37, $17 after rebate. My daughter still has hers, it's runing strong!:g_laughin

Thier is a thread on this topic- Non-branded electronic stuff.

 

It seems people had very good experience with it till now.

SO that increases my confidance in these peoducts.

The Apex DVD player we got on BF a few years ago works fine.

 

The DVD/VCR we got last year from Daewoo needed a warantee repair (35.00).

 

For 20.00 I wouldn't care so much.

Woo Hoo!! That's great!! Hope they have more of the great deals they had 2 years ago!! And BTW, I got a $20 DVD player 2 years ago and it was still working just fine (until I lost the remote a couple of months ago). :D

I seen Kmart also has one for 17.99 on BF early bird

Isn't that after a mail in rebate? Maybe I read it wrong. I HATE mail in rebates lol I always forget to send them in if the CC one has no rebate I'm there
