This probably goes without saying, but I urge everyone to check actual
end
prices before you purchase. I've seen liquidation sales that at 40-50%
were
still more expensive than Amazon or Newegg. In fact, IIRC, the last time
CC
did a round of liquidations there was a piece on WRAL about it where
they
found prices for some items were cheaper in the non-liquidating stores
(of
the same chain) than in the liquidating stores.
