puddytay Posted December 2, 2006 Share Posted December 2, 2006 On black Friday Circuit City had this tv for 1,199.... It might have only been posted on their website. I price matched around 5 of these on that day, and now my boss is questioning where I got that price from... Some customer came into the store today trying to get me to honor the 1,199 price from black Friday. Obviously we couldn't do it because it's been over a week. She then proceeded to make up a ton of false accusations against me saying I made fun of her and all of this other random crap. So I need to find a scan or a screen save of this deal. I guess the cost of the tv was 1,400 for us so the store isn't happy about loosing a grand from me price matching. I think they believe I made up the price to sell some tv's which is completely false. Can anyone help me out? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cassyoh Posted December 2, 2006 Share Posted December 2, 2006 I don't know if this will help or not, but it does list the price. I can't get the website to post correctly, so I will pm you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanyon71 Posted December 2, 2006 Share Posted December 2, 2006 There are some threads here and a front page section on another BF ad site that has the price of that TV listed as $1199 with people at both sites saying they got it for that price. I would PM you both links but I can't PM yet. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

civicracinggirl7 Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 Thanks guys but they already fired me....Sorry to hear that! My brother was fired for a similar situation (customer making false accusations over his behaviour) a couple of years ago, about 2-3 days before Christmas! It's unfortunate that people feel the need to do things like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSoldevila Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 With the evidence you can fight it, at least so you can clear your name. Get corporate involved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
puddytay Posted December 12, 2006 Author Share Posted December 12, 2006 The problem is they didn't use the fact of the price match to fire me, but said they did it because of the customer saying I was rude. So I have no grounds to do anything. If anything I think their made I sold 100,000 dollars worth of stuff in my 2 months there and only 2,000 dollars worth of warranties... They claim I was loosing them money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They claim I was loosing them money.They are probably right...http://www.businessweek.com/magazine/content/04_51/b3913110_mz020.htm Warranties cost virtually nothing to market, and the products they insure rarely need repairs. Says FTN Midwest Securities Corp. analyst Daryl Boehringer: "It's just pure profit flowing down to the bottom line." Last year, profits from warranties accounted for all of Circuit City's operating income and almost half of Best Buy's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skairx90 Posted December 13, 2006 Share Posted December 13, 2006 That sucks, sorry to hear that. I went through a similar situation a couple months ago but 100k sold and only 2k in warranties will make them hot though lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
