I read in the early 90s, someone approached Sears and urged them to go digital, and their existing stores would have been where they would showcase new products and facilitate pickups and returns.

The board laughed them out of the office....just like Blockbuster laughed at Netflix.

Sears could have been Amazon. They already had the legendary catalog And yes, the lingerie section rocked growing up in the early 80s. All they had to do was make the leap to cyber space and not bought Kmart. Which was the dumbest decision since Atari made the ET video game.

The CEO bought KMart for the real estate.

I remember the 1950s and early 1960s catalogs when models in black leotards wore the bras and undies OVER the leotards.
