What?

[monty55]

Does this strike you as odd.. today? I thought they had got out of the sell EVERYTHING thing...

who'd a thunk it?

 

[bulletsnbriars]

My phone won't load it. What are we looking at? Mail order bride? Plastic explosives? An industrial bucket of lard? Three magic beans?

 

[beefeater33]

Bullet-

Its an apple shape meer, sold by sears, for forty bucks-- not a bad looking piece either.

 

[bulletsnbriars]

Thats awesome!

Great find Monty - thanks for sharing. I feel like I just stepped back in time - Sears selling pipes!

 

[pylorns]

Yeah, never knew they were selling pipes, that's crazy.

 

[wilson]

I'm tempted. I'm stunned to see it from Sears. But I am tempted.

Keep in mind that this is not a block meerschaum. notice it states that the pipe is made of Meerschaum and other minerals – that means it's a pressed meerschaum, not quite the same as a block. It still may be a fine smoker, mind you.

 

[agnosticpipe]

No thanks. After my last experience with Sears, when they sent the refrigerator I ordered to another state, made me order it again, then billed me for both, I don't think I'd even order a pipe from them. :crazy:

 

[judd]

Meerschaum and other "minerals", hopefully not radioactive.

 

[phil67]

Wait... does it come with a Sears extended warranty?

If so, I'm in!

 

[judd]

Looks like they have a storefront with Sears, all sort of Meerschaum pipes for sale. I guess I've seen stranger things. http://www.sears.com/search=?sellerId=24735

"Sold by: Royal Meerschaum Pipes "

The "Sears" site is like Amazon Marketplace or eBay Buy It Now.

Not sold by Sears, not fulfilled by Sears. Not really Sears at all, if Sears even exists anymore. It's just the name of the site.
Pop Quiz, no googlecheating: Name the song and group
Good morning, could I have this shirt cleaned express, please?

Yes, thatll be three weeks, dearie,

Three weeks? But the sign outside says 59-minute cleaners

Yes, that's just the name of the shop, luv, we take three weeks to do a shirt

Just the name of the shop?!

Yes, that's if there's an R in the month, otherwise its four weeks. Your name does begin with a P, doesn't it?

Well, no, actually, of course its, uh...

Well, that'll be five weeks, then,

Five weeks? Blimey!

The world just got a little more weird.

[woodsroad]

What's weird?

 

[monty55]

Woodsroad, that's good info. So they just use the "Sears" name huh? Weird.
Well, um.. I give up on the pop quiz song. I've had too many glasses of wine to properly think that one out...

 

[wilson]

If it's not a Kenmore, I've lost interest.

 

[edgreen]

Might want to grab them quick. I saw an article earlier this week that said that Sears was close to closing its doors for good.
