    Heard on the radio last night that "Compustore are refusing to confirm the closeure of the limerick facility with the loss of 15 jobs". I can see why though, over priced, and the place was never busy! Wonder would maplins be interested in the site?:D

    Sorry for the staff though, heard they got a letter handed to them on the way out the door, advising them their jobs were no longer there. :(

    It was a terrible location, to be honest. I think PC World is much better located, and I presume that had a hand in Compustore's closure.

    I'm a moron who can't make a proper point.

    They were over priced and not particularly helpful, but they lost their jobs, so have a little bit of sympathy.:D Won't miss them though, hope they have a clear out sale!

    No loss so as far as I can see. Bad customer service will put you out of business faster than out of wack prices.

    hopefully.
    I'd consider feeling sorry for the staff,but they're too slow to realise what's happening...

    Absolutely. PC World is in a retail park that people actually visit. Compustore's location was terrible - the only passing traffic that might have led a casual shopper in comes during rush hour.
