CompUSA.com Spam

This type of unsolicited email annoys me:

Dear So and So,

We hope you are enjoying the product(s) you recently purchased with CompUSA.

We'd love your opinions regarding the product(s) you purchased, thus, we

10oz Air Duster Unscented

Thank you for shopping with CompUSA!

The CompUSA Staff


Without some sort of incentive, there is no reason to provide product reviews for a retails. You'd be better off starting a blog, like MyTechDeals!

CompUSA Tech Deals?

I posted an entry about CompUSA to Are you going to buy that? recently, and although the post reflected my negative experience, I was surprised that others have had bad experiences as well. Its only been a short while, but two people have already commented: you can read my original post about CompUSA and others comments here.

Another comment was to a post I had about CompUSA's future, and even another was in response to a post about CompUSA closing 15 stores.

All that being said, I do have to defend CompUSA here a little, while their service may not be the greatest, they do have some great tech deals from time to time, like the APC UPS 1200VA I got their recently for $99 AR.
