You've got that back ***-ward, it's the other way around.

K-Mart buying Sears was a surprise. I'm sure K-Mart execs will find a way to start sinking Sears. Of course, if it weren't for their tools, I figured they'd been going down a long time ago.

K-Mart buying Sears was a surprise. I'm sure K-Mart execs will find a way to start sinking Sears. Of course, if it weren't for their tools, I figured they'd been going down a long time ago.
Local sears store has items marked UP a few dollars from the book prices. I called HQ for sears and filed a complaint about overcharging the customer. I got a refund of the overcharge and they said they would "check into it" with the store manager. This was 2 years ago and they still overcharge on items by a few bucks.
Better know the price before you go there or you'll end up paying more.

I don't know if they all do this or just this one.

I also notice that the quality of their tools is not as good as it was too.

I also bought a refrig there years back because they advertise "brand central" so I gave it a try. Ended up getting a damaged one delivered that the handles were yellowed ,maybe a floor model and the they said that they can't pick up this unit up till next week.
After they got a bit snotty, I told them when they come to pick it up, they will find it at the curb. I was told I can't do that but I replied that I'm not storing their refrig for them till they get the chance to pick it up and that I will have a new on in my house before the end of the day. They took it back the same day and I found the exact same unit for $128 less with no delivery charge like sears charges elsewhere.

Beware of Sears, it's not the store it once was!

After hearing on this forum about the sale on torque wrenches at Sears, I ordered 2. well that was 2 days ago and I just rec'd an Email that the order would be cancelled do to high demand for the items. Just does't seem right, why offer an item that can't be delivered? Very disappointed with Sears....

After reading here about the sale I went out and got the torque wreches at Sears. Now Im not a professional machanic, so I really will use them only when putting on say detachables, chrome covers etc, so excuse the stupid questions Im about to ask!! But HOW DO YOU USE THE WRENCH? I know the purpose of the wrench and the idea behing torqueing down a bolt but the instructions that came with the wrenches are vague, how do you set up the lbs to be torqued, can anyone give me detailed directions and or photos sorry for the stupid question but help out the non professional mechenic!! Thanks Bill

Received two e-mails today. First e-mail confirm my order #******* and will receive it in 7 to 9 business day. Second e-mail says my order is on its way with the amount that was billed to my visa. Looks like I’ll get my sons torque wrenches.
