Sears to sell Craftsman to Stanley/B&D

There is a REASON there is a difference between wholesale (warehouse)
and retail (store) pricing - and it has nothing to do with the
retailer going after your gonads.
The reason a retailer is going after my gonads is not important to me.
If an item cost 3-10 times as much at a retail store, I'm not likely
going to buy it, nor will their price gouging ways send a chill up my leg.
I hate buying machine screws at Borgs, they come in sealed package of 3
for .99. I need 4, and the price is stupid. Hardware stores used to
sell them by the pound and they were cheap. Lowes sells threaded
inserts individually for 10x's more than I can buy them at Granger.
Why Sears, Lowes, Home Depot won't give a decent price on small items is
not important to me. I guess enough people don't mind getting screwed,
or even know they are getting screwed.
I've been there myself.
