PC Club / Club IT Done?

Our sources tell us that some/all of the top management has left PC Club / Club IT as of today without giving prior notice to employees. Today during business hours, PC Club’s HQ store had its doors locked and the closed sign out.

At the main warehouse and Club IT office entrance the PC Club sign has been removed from the building.

And finally a PC Club ex-employee, Nick, has chimed in that:

I was employed at PC Club in Tigard Oregon. They had kept everyone in the dark about them closing PC Club. Even the Regional Managers knew nothing about it until this morning at 11am. All employees were told that company is closing after filing Chapter 7 bankruptcy.

And from one anonymous source:

As a huge fan of Hardocp and a recently (today) laid off employee of PC Club, I just want to let you know that the rumors are confirmed. As of 5:00 all PC Club employees will be laid off and PC Club will be filing for bankruptcy tomorrow morning at 8:00 pacific time. Today we received word from management that we were to put a sign up and immediately close the store. Just thought I would let you know. Keep up the awesome site.

I would say that all pretty much seals that deal.

We are sad to announce that PC Club and Club IT are now closed. We apologize to our customers. If you have any pending orders or concerns please contact us at customerinfo@pcclub.com. Thanks you for all your years of support.
