Sears has another chance to avoid closing down
Sears had everything.  Global supply chain, check.  Top notch distribution operation, check.  System and infrastructure to take orders and handling billing, check.  Name recognition and established customer base, check.<p>They threw it all away, ending catalog operations in 1993 a year before Amazon.com opened in 1994.  They owned part of Prodigy in 1984!  Yet somehow thought it was a better move to expand  into bigger box retail.  Anyone remember The Great Indoors from 1997?  It was going to have huge potential.<p>What a waste.
