Nomadic And Crashing With Friends? No Computer Parts For You
By Laura Northrup on May 9, 2012 9:30 AM  
Joshua is a functioning adult with plenty of money to spend at TigerDirect, but they don't want to sell computer parts to him. That's because he leads sort of a nomadic existence.

He could fix all this by sending in his photo ID, a utility bill, anything that proves that he is where he says he lives. But he's crashing with friends, and that doesn't get your name on the power bill. More »

Circuit City Rises From Dead, Traps Customer In Laptopless Purgatory
By Laura Northrup on February 9, 2011 9:30 AM  
Systemax, the same company that now owns TigerDirect and the CompUSA brand name, devoured the remains of Circuit City and relaunched it.

By consumerist.com on September 8, 2009 7:05 PM  

—>Waiting for a rebate from TigerDirect? Good luck with that.

The suit also charges TigerDirect with engaging in "deceptive and unfair trade practices."  More »

CircuitCity.com Reborn As... Circuit City!
By Carey Alexander on May 23, 2009 10:00 PM  

—>CircuitCity.com is back, and it looks eerily familiar. The zombie website is now controlled by Systemax, the same folks who own Tiger Direct. Though the new site may look similar to the old, no doubt part of Systemax's goal to keep alive a "proud brand that America has grown to count on," it isn't nearly as consumer-friendly as we would like...  More »
