| Adam | February 19th, 2007 02:15 AM February 18, 2007 Rotating Sales I already have had several years experience with the local hardware chain, named Orchard Supply Hardware, carrying Craftsman tools. You are correct in the observation that Craftsman tools, sold outside of Sears, seem a bit surrealistic. But, the duplication in inventory does allow shorter trips for Craftsman new tool purchases and provides TWO sources of regular Craftsman tool sales. So, I guess them being in K-Mart is OK with me. K-Mart, like OSH, will probably never be the one stop place of tool exchange. I think the Sears stores will continue with this overhead cost, with the opportunity for additional sales. A cashier just happened to mention being out of 3/8 inch drive, standard-finish, flex ratchets for exchange today, and within ten minutes I was back with five ratchets (keep clean and dried blanks at the ready in the PMT shop for fast turn-around time rebuilding). |
