although you might have gotten a letter which said:
Ah geez, I just remembered we got a letter on Feb 15th from Sears CFO (Rob Riecker) specifically stating the sale was closed. So it is for sure closed. The wording is
"We are pleased to confirm the closing of the sale of substantially all of Sears Holdings' assets, including 425 "Go Forward Stores", to Transform Holdco LLC, an affiliate of ESL Investments, Inc. for a total consideration of approximately $5.2 billion"
reicker misspoke. the sale was approved by judge drain, it has yet to close.
regarding payment from sears, i commented recently on this board that i had brought a small claims action against sears protection company for breaching its service agreement. the judge found in my favor and last week i received a claim from "sears holding corporation as debtor in possession" drawn on bank of america in full satisfaction of this claim, plus my court costs.
