Yes, they could have survived, but Sears like a lot of other big department stores couldn’t see the internet as an outlet for selling. Most of them were created about 120 years before they went out of business. Sears started as a catalog sales company, so the jump to the internet shouldn’t have been to big for it, but they lost their roots. You know, Sears used to sell houses out of catalogs and ship them to your location to build (they were metric measurements, too). They forgot how to do that, apparently.

That was the biggest miss for Sears to not realize online sales were a thing like Amazon

What brand of power tools do you like to buy?

Wasn’t that a shame? Craftsman tools had the best warranty and also were of good quality. They did not breakdown very often, in fact, they never broke for me. And the best part, i remember that they were not so expensive, either.
