Lawsuit
In July 2007, a user with the avatar "speedy1961" posted information from an upcoming Circuit City Sunday newspaper ad flyer revealing a $100 PlayStation 3 price drop. Weeks later, Circuit City subpoenaed CAG Productions, LLC in an effort to obtain speedy1961's identity. To fight Circuit City, Cheap Ass Gamer hired an attorney and filed an objection and motion to quash the subpoena. In February 2009, after declaring bankruptcy, Circuit City filed an order of nonsuit, ending the matter, keeping speedy1961's identity a secret.
