Years ago America depended on catalogs for choice. Now, it’s online. The wheel keeps on turnin’.
Never even set foot in hhgregg once. Blip, gone.
Next, home 3D printers will eliminate the need for online retailers.
Funny thing is that the big catalog houses that should have been first to embrace the internet and online shopping world, that had all the infrastructure to dominate that arena have all utterly failed at it. Sears should have been able to crush Amazon utterly - but even now they have a terrible, nearly unusable website that often fails at basic functions and they still don’t understand why they’re failing online. Service Merchandise failed out in similar fashion.
