Your negativity will only affect you. Frys Electronics has been a great successful company.
Fry's Arlington
The Arlington Texas store is the same way. My wife and I went to the store on Sunday and found the same problem! Bare shelves! They are not replacing or replenishing the stock. Ask the clerk if they were closing. They replied, we were told that we... — read more
Can Fry's Electronics survive past this year?
I really don't see a way for it, considering the sad state of most, if not all stores.
The End of An Era!
“Jean-Louis? You work here?” It’s Spring 1991. A startled Apple employee finds me behind a cash register at the huge Fry’s Electronics store in Sunnyvale. “Well, you know…I just got fired…have to make ends meet.” I’d been working as a cashier... — read more
Candy at Fry's
Fry's Northgate Sacramento isn't even restocking candy! https://1drv.ms/f/s!Asc0D7odKCUnhI1Yh79epq7N44KDlg What's next, Pepsi? Yup, was in Roseville Fry's tonight to return a few things and it was like a funeral parlor in there. The shelves... — read more
Fry's online has very little to sell
Sold Out...Sold Out Everywhere I looked, same story. Company sale or liquidation coming soon, it seems.
Indianapolis
Was in the Indianapolis store today. Ghost-town. Bare shelves throughout the store. Sad.
Phoenix
I was in the Phoenix AZ store yesterday. I’ve been a commercial reseller customer for years, but I’ve been layed up for the whole summer with medical c-ap. I finally started working again this week and needed something I knew I could grab at Fry’s... — read more
Went to the Webster/Clear Lake, Texas area store yesterday...
...to see shockingly bare shelves, maybe 4 employees in the entire store, and they looked absolutely miserable. Pretty sad to see, feel bad for the people working there as I really used to love going to Fry's and checking out the cool stuff. — read more
Fry's at Downers Grove IL is a major shocker.
The store looks like an abandoned asylum. 80% shelves are empty, I asked an employee, if the store is closing, he told me I cannot say much as i dont even get my salary now.
Visited Fry's in Oxnard, CA. I needed batteries...
Unbelievable. No D cells, No C cells. Only a handful of AAAs and lots of empty shelves. No dip switches. No DPDT toggles. CAT5 connectors running out. No FRS Radios. The list goes on and on.... I was told this was all due to tariffs. I don't... — read more
Fry's Dead On Its Feet, get the hot details
Home Office-level idiocy, negligence, and greed across the board. No more transfer of items between stores (fired all the truck drivers). 1 Non-retail location already closed (Product Repair, now even broken items will be sold), rumors for that... — read more
Fry's is Finished.
It's too bad. Even if you don't shop with Fry's, the fact that they exist meant places you did shop at had more competition. Without competition, the retailers can sell for whatever price they want and you either have to pay it or go without. — read more
Fry’s in Roseville. Sad state of affairs.
Went to Fry’s in Roseville CA today. 50% of rows completely empty. Rows with goods were 15% stocked. I asked the employees twice if they were closing and said it was a waste of time to drive there. They said they don’t know the fate of the store... — read more
How long can they continue like this?
Honestly, this is already beyond ridiculous. How long can some of these stores operate with barely anything on their shelves? I can't imagine that they make even close to what they need to cover all the store-related expenses AND cover employee pay... — read more
Renton
Was in the Renton, WA store on Saturday / it was a tomb. A parking lot that, at that time of the day, should have been packed, had only a few cars in it. Was in there just to get a 4 or 5 port network hub / there weren't any. Best Buy ha lots of... — read more

Fry's Will Not Die
Title
Fry’s Renton
Went in yesterday. The place is literally about 1/3 empty / bare shelves. Blank wall where motherboards used to be. Skeleton crew about 10% of what they used have. I asked a sales associate twice about date they were closing. He stared at me blankly... — read more
Frys San Jose Empty Shelves
https://pbs.twimg.com/media/ECYjhiHUcAEJRwV?format=jpg
The Plano, TX shelves are empty.
I can remember when many of us, in the Dallas area, could not wait for the Friday Fry's sale flyer to come out in the paper. I would venture to guess, that flyer along sold thousands of Friday newspaper. For over a decade, Fry's was the geeks... — read more

Terrible Return Policy
Fry's deserve to go down because their return policy terrible, their business model s—s, their workers has no clues what they do, I have not purchased anything from them for years now, BestBuy and Microcenter has much better service and quality. bye... — read more
Is it just one guy going to every store and commenting on here?
Every day for like the past two months this site gets bombarded with store reports, all similarly written, about the lousy state of Fry's stores across the country. While I don't doubt the company is going down, there's no way this is all different... — read more
Irving Store Update
Today I noticed the computer parts section just stores cases of water now. All the remaining parts have been moved over by the laptops to like one shelf. The big BOSE display they had is gone. Plenty of water, fake perfumes, and as seen On TV items... — read more
Looks like Downers Grove is closing to me...
Was just there this morning and there is a For Lease sign in the parking lot. Also a sign inside that the Cafe has closed. And of course, the shelve empty.
Frys in Concord
It's dead. Shelves where empty, not an employee in sight. Boxes where left with the items stolen from them, no security at the door. The writing's on the wall, might go back to swipe something myself honestly.
Frys Wilsonville Oregon Closing
Went to Wilsonville Oregon store. Bare shelves. Couple cashiers stated it was because they are getting a new distributor. Manager knows they are closing but his boss and owner Randy Fry hasn't announced it. No one can keep up with Amazon. And as I... — read more
Campbell, CA. Echoing aisles.
I might go there 3-4 times per year, and I've never seen it so empty. Maybe 1/4 of the shelves had anything at all on them, and then it was one or maybe two items of each. I think I saw one other customer there, and maybe three or four... — read more

San Jose, Campbell, and Fremont stores

Gut Feeling: City of Industry Store Will Close Soon
Just came back from the City of Industry store. Great place to take your 1 year old if you need a ton of space of run around. Bare shelves and very little on the floor. With the release of the new Ryzen CPU, you would expect the shelves to be full of... — read more
Fry's Refrigerator Delivery
I paid for a refrigerator at Fountain Valley store which was suppose to be delivered. They never delivered it. I went to the store (about 20 miles from me) and was told that their delivery people quit. Waste of time including waiting past their 4-5... — read more
Austin, TX slowly dying.
I thought it odd some years ago when fake perfumes greeted the shopper upon entrance into the store. Seemed so out of place. Now today the perfumes have their own aisle and what used to be the massive DVD section is now "as seen on TV"-type junk. ... — read more

An online thing...
[from PNS' site]: On this day, they (Fry's) weren’t selling much of anything. Employees wandered past rows of half-empty shelves. A clerk stopped to straighten a line of cologne bottles near a mostly bare endcap stacked with clearance DVDs. “We’re... — read more

Went to the Arlington, Texas store yesterday and it was nearly empty. I only wanted speaker wire and they had none Salesman told me it was the fault of the President and his tariffs. I then ordered a 100 foot roll from Amazon and received it today... — read more
I worked at the Renton, WA Fry’s Electronics for 3 years before I decided enough was enough.
The treatment of the workers is absolute garbage. I started as a Cage Associate which basically you just sit in the cage where all the computer components are and give them to the cashiers when a paper prints out. Felt like an animal... — read more
