I thought the first round of store closings meant the end for them. Just looked at an article today after seeing this post and read that they started a hedge fund to try and save the company. That sounds like a hail mary at the end of the game to me.

Would tend to agree on the "Hail Mary."

They took too long to get their online game going.

They could have been a player..........but just got gobbled up.

Really horrible upper mgmt.

We have a small one here in our small town.

Wonder if there's gonna be any deals on inventory??

Penney's is next. There is simply no need for these stores anymore. Their time is past. RIP.

Years of customer dissatisfaction- lousy products and no replacement parts. 80 more stores to close. The only things I've bought there in the past 10 years is eyeglasses and that store is closing.

they fronted for rip off operations by leasing their "good" name for years.

The more faithful the Sears customer, the deeper they took it in the azz.

I used to buy tobacco and Accessories at Bradlees. Loved Zayres and Ames that bought them out only to go out themselves (goal was to be biggest retailer-forgot the bottom line).

Is Radio Shack still breathing ?

I heard Sprint may be going into it's last year.
