Well, unlike you I dislike their high prices, unrelenting pressure to sell service contracts and their appliance sales people with whom I had recent experience telling me anything but Kenmore is garbage. So I bought a Viking kitchen, elsewhere. Hey, I hope you like your new appliances.

I am not only NOT short, but I follow Sears because I sense they have an extraordinary opportunity to capitalize on the death throes of JCP. And, I have respect for what Eddie did at AutoZone which was a fave of mine for many years. But Sears needs some new blood, Eddie needs to quit micro-managing stuff he really doesn't "get" and somebody needs to drop a bomb on the Hoffman Estates Good Old Boy Campus before rigor mortis sets in.

Huge Sears problem: Affluent people don't shop there. No one where I live would talk about buying a "High End" product there.

Sears has a terrible image. Has for 40 years or more. The store blue collar workers shop.
