| | | The Death of Sears < on 2/15/2018 4:42 AM > | Reply with Quote
| | | So in my area there's multiple sears all in different stages of their death. The photos attached are of perhaps the most interesting one currently. This one is in a mall where the sears is actually 3 floors. However the 3rd floor isn't accessible from the mall and only from the Sears. So Sears can't sublet it out as they're doing with the two other locations until their death. So for now there's just an entire 3rd floor that's empty. Another sears near me has the 2nd level of it turned into a Primark and is in the final closing phase now. It seems what they did was claim they were closing for renovations on the second floor but really sublet it until their lease was set to expire it looks like. As now the Sears has announced it's closing in April entirely after having the Primark upstairs in its second floor for a year. So it will be interesting to see who moves in. I'm most interested in if they left the escalators in here and just enclosed them that now go up to the Primark. The third Sears location has its second floor closed for renovations it claims but I wouldn't be surprised if they were just moving out and waiting for someone to sublet the 2nd floor space. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6.

| | | Sears' woes go back long before their shady CEO... Sears had been in trouble for awhile, in part to the rise of walmart... On top of that, their stores were a mess, employees poorly trained, underpaid and they were, just like every other brick and mortar store, starting to suffer from the effects of online shopping. As an aside, Kmart is owned by Sears so they're suffering the same fate. Look at other retailers like sears... it's amazing they held on for as long as they did. I've read a couple of analysis on the fall of Sears, and while their chain of crappy CEO's haven't helped, their demise almost seemed inevitable.

| Kmart actually owns Sears or more so they were the dominate overtaker. NEW YORK (CNN/Money) - Kmart is buying Sears, Roebuck & Co. for $11 billion in a deal that will marry two of the nation's oldest retailers that had trouble keeping up with the changes in American culture around them. http://money.cnn.c...ne500/sears_kmart/

| | | The hilarious thing is they had these shirts at the sears by me thats undergoing liquidation. The price was $52 for a TShirt and $20 on clearance. The sales associate even laughed and was like no way would I buy that. $52 for a freaking T-Shirt and it wasn't an error the whole rack of basic tshirts was that price. They had a cookie monster one too. Also of interest is the fact that they're literally selling baggies of sand and used library books that were left behind by someone. Also of note is that this mall has undergone multiple renovations and expansions which I thought was interesting all the Neon is still in the mall they just painted over it. But the best part of the trip was the giant peanut driving around. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5.
