Their money making is mostle centered on the extended warranties,
overpriced accesories (monster/denon cables), and the store branded credit
cards.
Plus Fshop and BB are owned by the same company...

They have some pretty good merchandise, but the price is wrong. Forbes
is pronouncing that in 2 years to 3 years, you will see BB closing their
doors, unless there is some radical changes introduced.
The computers for office use dont sell, Laptops are under $500, BB and
FShop have very high marketing costs (marketing costs are probably
around 50%, but shared with suppliers in some split).
Will we be saying BB to BB? (Bye-Bye to BB)
