Many of us have decided to buy stuff elsewhere.
Most places would be happy to have some uniformed police officers shopping there.
In New Orleans, it was the “officers” ripping off the store.
Very dumb.
Sears needs the sales.
and the second point too.
I just threw away a Sears Kenmore dishwasher....piece of junk. I’ve had nothing but trouble with their dishwasher (broke & replaced), washing machine (broke & replaced), refrigerator (twice repaired), and dryer (broke & replaced.) The stove is holding up just fine, but we’ll probably replace it to match the new dishwasher.
Now I know why Sears hawks insurance with all their appliances. They are pieces of junk.
Sears needs to (publicly?) reprimand this guy. Firing I leave to their option.
But hey, I hardly shop at Sears anymore and if it goes to zero, who'd notice?
Unbeleivalbe statement.
'Coy' she really isn't, is she?
With a REAL cop in the store, crime might be deterred, thereby not giving the wannabe the opportunity or need to flex his manliness and "authority", thereby negating the need for his job, but also negating his usefulness in life.
That officer must have given the Sears associate a ticket in the past.
Sears tried to blame their weak 1Q earnings today on the price of gas.
What a joke.
Last time I was in a Sears was about 2 years ago. Heard they were having a clearance on a certain widget (an appliance). I knew who made that widget for Sears and it is the best brand out there. (Same brand also makes cheapos and Sears sells the cheapos too.)
Bought $800.00 worth at around $20 a pop. Cleaned them out. Lowest I got on eBay for them was $70.00.
The last time I was in a Sears before that? Hmmm... Oh, I know. I went in about 6 years ago to buy a wrench to replace one I borrowed and lost.
I have worked with plenty of their appliances. Depends who makes them as to whether they are any good or not. But always a crap shoot unless you know who made the item.
Really!
I have had Kenmores for years and so have my folks have Sears for years and years and never needed repairs except belts when they wear out!
Washers, Dryers, Stoves and Frigs
How well I know. I have installed plenty Kenmore dishwashers.
OK, corporate apologies, but have they fired the personnel?
Read my post #14 for the answer.
For 15 years I regularly broke a $20 Craftsman tool at least two to three times a year in the course of my job and took them all back for the lifetime guaranteed replacement.
I figure my $20 (actually it was $60 because I lost it twice and bought new ones) purchase cost them over $600-$700.
My mom/dad’s Sears Kenmore clothes dryer worked for 26 years without a service call.
