That’s the end of Sears.
Craftsman tools were the only reason I went there.

Tim Allen will be deeply saddened.

Yep, have used the tools and their house paint for over 40 years. They dropped selling paint over 5 years ago and that was it for me.

Craftsman brand tools were the only reason I went to Sears. Most of my tools were purchased there. Needed an odd size socket a few months ago and went to the Ace Hardware store 4 blks. from my house. They usually have everything, but didn’t have what I needed. Only place in town that did was Sears. And it wasn’t expensive. Sorry to see the downhill slide

At least I can say I got my money’s worth out of Craftsman’s unconditional guarantee. Bought one 100’ steel tape measure and replaced it 15 times over as many years.

Had some friends who ran an auto repair biz. Whenever a craftsman tool broke they tossed it into a 5 gallon bucket. Whenever the bucket got to be 1/2 full they’d make a run over to sears for replacements.
