    Apparently people were queuing for an hour at the Llandudno JJB store yesterday and they had stock being brought in from other stores. I don't know what the reductions are/were, I didn't bother going as I don't really need anything.

    This is one of the stores that's due to become a Sports Direct so presumably the other 19 stores that will be staying open are also being used to get rid of JJB stock in the same way?
    The fridge is empty, the walls are damp, there's no hot water
    And I look like a tramp and tramps like us

    All the JJB stock has to go, was in Silverburn and Cumbernauld stores yesterday, they were running low on stock, but they were getting new deliveries today. At the end of the day in Cumbernauld yesterday the staff werent putting the items through the till, they were just giving you a more than 50% off price for all the stuff you had. People were paying £25, for piles of football tops, trainers and other things.

    Don't think I would order off the website just incase.

    I wouldn't order personally I placed order last week after seeing store was open (no closing down signs) for collection in store. Gone down the town today it's closed down and i have no idea how to collect my order or why it let me choose the store? I have no order history on the website either they have wiped it.
    Anyone any idea if i'll ever see my order or money?

    If you try the old store number,it may give you contact details for the administrators,or if you paid by CC or Paypal contact them directly.

    Good luck.
