I was in The Tustin Tower..inventory is starting to defintely wear thin and to think in amazement how much stuff has been sold at higher then everyday internet prices..
I did buy 5 cds on the buy 4 get one free as wanted to walk away with something..
there are some less popular Crterion titles and other stuff that collectors would want and Joe Public would not buy at 90% off I think..hehe

Went to Tower today, and there were still a lot of pop/rock CDs @ 40% off. Picked up two Beastie Boys CDs at 70% off...$8 total. I'm still waiting for the others to go to about 60-70% off before picking up anything else.

Tower here in Fresno still has a lot of stuff. Lots of stuff I thought by now would have soild they still have. The good thing is that the local news let the cat out of the bag that Rasputin Music is going into the old building once Tower closes up shop.

There was a short feature in the Brea/La Habra, CA, community paper that interviewed someone associated with the city's downtown. He said it was up to the liquidator to decide what would fill Tower's place (it's a beautiful building that anchors the Brea downtown shopping/dining district) and he had no idea what the liquidator would do. He did say that PF Chang's expressed interest, but that was as much as he knew.

Dallas Tower is 50% off pop/rock/R&B and import CDs, 70% off rap and singles CDs, and 40% off DVDs. There's still a lot of stock left.
Does anyone know how long these sales might last and to what % off the DVDs/CDs will get to? Sam Goody/Suncoast went up to 80% off if I recall right.

I hear from workers in the DC area that stores will be open through mid to late Dec. I expect clearance prices to rise to 90% off on the final day (such as Suncoast)...

Unless you're into buying just about anything that's out there, getting there the first day of 60% (or 70% if you can hold out long enough) would ensure getting the best stuff at the cheapest price...otherwise that stuff is going to be gone like neck bone.
I remember when the Wherehouse in my college town hit 80% off there was nothing left but crap...literally. This was a shitty store.

it will be hard to get any good deals for cheap as liquidators/resellers swoop in prearranged to buy tons of stock. I was at a wherehouse late in day when everything was 90% off and one guy had like 6 shopping carts full with "all" the new/sealed cds left in store...I don't see Tower having anything left by the time it is 60% or maybe 70% as it is Christmas and everyone will be snagging stuff for gifts..

Stamford, CT store has 70% off rap cd's, 50% off all other cd's and all other merchandise. DVD's are 40% off, but hardly anything left.
Tons of decent CD's left.

Hawaii (Oahu) Residents:
I hit the Kahala Mall Tower last night. It's the same deal everybody else has been posting: 50% off CD's, 40% off DVD's, 70% off Hip-Hop/Rap CD's, 90% off magazines. I looked through all the CD's. There's still some decent stuff, but it's definitely getting thin. I picked up the Bob Dylan Essential Collection for $13.54, but I didn't really find anything else that grabbed me. There were a few others that I wouldn't mind picking up if the discount gets to 70% (assuming they're still around by that point). I didn't really scour the DVD's, but I did look through the International section. There are still a lot of great Criterions and the like, but at 40% off full MSRP, they're really no cheaper than standard online prices (and worse when you factor in all the various holiday sales and promotions running right now).
