Another Obama era business down the drain
Thank China for this, underpricing our stores
Also
You didn't build that BS nonsense !!
making American manufacturing, labor & price driven causes
some of the biggest issues in our country, hard to compete
with our corp. tax structure & labor wages/laws/regulations etc.
that gotten far worse since 2008 {starting in 1976 & escalated 1992}...
When China & others, that undercut all our pricing/trade inequities...
Americans & America 1st & foremost, I hope it happens & soon,
maybe we will have less of these long term iconic brands of
Made in the USA, all going away or outsourcing....
Yes it was happening some before the current admin.,
IMO it's far worse now than 8-10 years ago, getting worse year by year,
regardless what happened before then...
Sears has been on it's last legs for some time and it looks like the end is near. They are closing another 104 stores and selling their Craftsman trademark to Stanley Tools. It's surprising to me that Stanley is willing to pay $900 million for the Craftsman trademark. Years ago Craftsman meant good quality tools and equipment, but today it means very little to me unless I'm buying a fifty year old wrench at a garage sale. Sad to see the employees losing their jobs.

Thanks for sharing I saw that too,
I thought it was being branded/used {sold the rights}
by/to other companies, a long time ago too...
Many outlets & online stores, were selling that name Craftsman...
Agreed
on both accounts
