    Best Buy Closing UK Megestores


    Best Buy will close its 11 megastores in the UK, the company announced today. The company's eastward expansion plans from three years ago failed to materialize, which would have seen Best Buy open 100 stores across the island nation before invading mainland Europe. This follows Best Buy's retreat earlier this year from opening branded stores in China and Turkey.

    I saw that.

    Apparently, 200 stores were planned, but only 11 were opened.

    Shame about the people losing their jobs, but if customers weren't coming through the door, that's it I'm afraid.

    Yes, retail stores are hard to run with lower cost online options available.

    From some comments people didn't even know Best Buy existed.
