Sorry to hear about your job Speedy. I know you'll land on your feet.
Thanks again for everything you've done over the years. Your posts have been an invaluable asset to those of us here, at CAG and anyone else online looking for deals. There's others that put ads out early, but no one does as great a job as you do.
I hope we'll still see you around here.

Thanks Speedy. Your contributions to this forum have benefited many... yours truly included.
DVD Bargains will never be the same again, nor will DVDTalk. I hope your retirement is short lived and you're back at work in no time at all.

Black Friday has truly gone black now that Speedy has announced he's leaving and even worse, unemployed. Good luck in your search and Via con dios.

Re: Best Buy Prices: February 1 - February 7, 2009 FAREWELL EDITION
We're screwed. You were a true asset to the online deal finding populous. Best of Luck Speedy. I know there was someone before you that posted the ads, but felt like he wasnt appreciated, but you took over soon after he stopped and have been extremely consistent and early with the ads. You were the most valuable poster on DVDtalk over the years.
Edit:
Considering I probably spent about $50 at best buy the past 12 months and CC is going out of business its not that huge of a loss for me personally. It was great to have the ads though and have something to reference and get an idea of what was being released ahead of time.

Thanks Speedy as your threads were the threads I looked forward the most on a weekly basis. I know I'll be praying for you in this time of crisis that the nation is in. Hopefully we will have some brighter days sooner than later. Working in the field of education I don't even feel that our jobs are that safe anymore. Keep your head up!

Thanks so much for all these weekly ad postings, Speedy. It really was something amazing. So many forums borrowed/reposted the details -- this loss will domino across the entire cyberbargainspace.
I hope you the best in your search for employment. Godspeed Mr. Speedy.

Best of luck to you, Speedy, and to everybody else who has also lost their jobs.
Oh, the irony of Speedy and all those CC folks getting the boot at the same time.

May your joys be as deep as the ocean,
your troubles as light as it's foam,
And may you find sweet peace of mind
wherever you may roam.
