One of the many huge mistakes that Sears has made.I recall in the 60s/70s everyone wanted that 350 page Sears catalog. Today I couldn't tell you where the closest Sears is to me.

Sears could have been Amazon. They had the warehouses and distribution system. But not the vision.
Story does get one detail wrong. KMart bought Sears, and then adopted the name. Lampert bought the stores as a real estate play, but kept the operations going longer than people thought he would.

Sears was in just the right position to become Amazon, but they blew it.

I don’t think there are anymore in the United States or even the world. I believe they closed them all down.
