A Journey Through the Original Amazon: Sears

In the age of online shopping, Amazon reigns supreme. However, before Amazon, there was Sears, the retail giant that carried everything from embroidery kits to actual houses. The story of Sears is a fascinating one, filled with highs and lows, innovations, and reinventions. Join us as we explore the legacy of Sears through a journey filled with humor, surprises, and a bit of nostalgia.

Unveiling the Sears Catalog: A Trip Down Memory Lane

Our journey begins with a reproduction of the 1908 Sears catalog. This catalog, a testament to Sears' diverse offerings, made Amazon look like a mom-and-pop shop. From embroidery kits to cameras, the catalog showcased everyday items. But what really stood out was the fact that you could buy an actual house. Yes, a whole house.

The Fall of a Giant: Sears Files for Bankruptcy

In 2018, Sears filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy, a significant moment that marked the decline of a retail giant. Today, only a handful of Sears stores still exist in the United States. This decline reminded us of the tech and crypto bros' resilience, as they often turn bankruptcy into a new way to grind. But the real question remained: What could we still find at Sears?

A Shopping Spree at Sears: The Adventure Begins

When Matt decided to spend a significant amount of money on Sears for a video, the team was intrigued. Sears still exists? What could they possibly have to offer? As we delved into the world of Sears.com, we discovered a mix of drop-ship nonsense and genuine surprises.

The Dierya DK61: A Keyboard with a Memorable Name

One of the first items we encountered was the Dierya DK61 keyboard. The name alone sparked laughter. Despite its unfortunate name, the keyboard was a decent mechanical device. Priced at over $50 on Sears, we discovered it was available for $23.70 on Amazon. Clearly, Sears was marking up the prices and drop-shipping directly from Amazon.

The Gundam Model Kit: An Anime Fan's Delight

Next, we found a Gundam model kit, a beloved item for anime fans. However, this kit required additional purchases like glue, paint, and brushes, which were not included. Priced at $24.98 on Sears, it was worth only $4.99 on Amazon. Once again, we were faced with a significant markup.

The Retro Arcade Game: A Nostalgic Throwback

One of the more interesting finds was a retro arcade game, the Allstar Stadium by My Arcade. Priced at $77.71 on Sears, it was available for $36 on Amazon. Despite the high price, the game provided a nostalgic throwback to simpler times, with its charmingly clunky design and limited functionality.

The 48-Hour Candle: A Historical Curiosity

One of the most peculiar items was a 48-hour candle, reminiscent of historical courting candles from the 16th with the Digivice, memories of childhood adventures with digital monsters came flooding back.

The Verdict: Sears in the Age of Amazon

Our adventure with Sears.com was a mixed bag. On one hand, it was a trip down memory lane, filled with nostalgic finds and historical curiosities. On the other hand, the significant markups and drop-shipping practices left us feeling somewhat disappointed. It was clear that Sears, once a retail giant, was now struggling to find its place in the modern market.
