Wow, 15 years too late and several billion dollars short.

The year after the catalog was shuttered Amazon started selling.

115 years of selling direct to consumers homes gone like the wind.....

The biggest case study of dumb management that will ever be written.

Amen, a perfect example of what not to do in business.

I can’t disagree.

It is so sad. Sears begat Amazon. You could order a home from a catalog and have it built from a Sears catalog at one time.
