      Systemax Wants To Buy Circuit City Website For $6.5 Million

      By Chris Walters, 5:34 PM on Mon Apr 13 2009, 6,617 views

      Circuit City zombie!Systemax, the company behind Tiger Direct (and the buyer of CompUSA's remains when it went out of business over a year ago) has announced it plans to buy the Circuit City e-commerce business for $6.5 million cash plus a share of the revenue over a 30 month period.

      If you can come up with $6.86 million by May 6th, you can fight for the site in an auction, and then maybe sell your own homemade trinkets on circuitcity.com.
