Seriously, tho... a few years back, I was in a town where a BBI franchisee went belly up. They were selling their bluray for $5 each (everything was $5.... great pricing plan there, guys). By the time I got there, the bluray were all gone. There was one blu movie left, Mr Woodcock. In the time it took me to make one circuit around the store, that Mr Woodcock went.... yes, someone even bought Mr Woodcock on blu. The HV/MG closing was much better. There was so much product flooding the market that it was easy to make a bulk offer.

I'm not sure why Movie Gallery would have 7 tanning beds or any of the other stuff, but it's not really up to the employees on prices, its still all in corporate hands. Having closed a store a few years ago, most of the stuff was boxed up and sent to another store and they sold off the rest of the stuff that people wouldn't rent/new place wouldn't have room for. Going in on the last day (aside from being able to post about it here) means you would have gotten the absolute lowest prices the company would be willing to charge for all the crap that was left over from weeks of opportunistic bargain hunters but you're still not happy.

What's the alternative of not selling the merchandise on the last day? 1. It gets boxed up and sent to another store. 2. stays in the orginal store and the landlord gets what is left. Which what was going to happen to the tanning beds and washer and dryer. Corp. was not going to pay to have that moved. By the way, I was the store manager in this closing store, so I know what it's like dealing with the customers who come in stating how sad to see us close and are looking for better deals. In case someone wants to state that I wouldn't understand what the employees were going thru. |

Another alternative that I have seen worked is, go in the day after, and see what the landlord will take for it. I have heard of the landlords giving it away, so as not to have to pay to have it removed. Whilst you're at it, Sarge, ask the landlord about renting the place. Then, neither of you have to move the fixtures and whatever is left behind, and you have an established location that people know. A lot of MG/HV landlords are renting out to indys, from what I am seeing.
