MUCH SNIPPED


I am curious as to why you think a CC purchase is better than Check?
How would this have improved the situation?

Because under federal law, administered by the FTC (Federal Trade
Commission)
a credit card charge can be contested for 60 days after the charge
first shows up
on the credit card statement and becase when its an issue of non
delivery of
merchandise ( and according to OP Sears sure as hell didn't deliver in
Florida or
anywhere else) the burden of proof as to actual delivery of the
merchandise is on
the vendor / merchant.

If Sears can't proove they actually delivered and installed the DW in
Florida,
Sears gets the charge back.
