I Bought a pair of XLR to RCA interconnects this morning at 9 A.M. just to see how they compare to regular RCAs; they arrived at 5 p.m. And I'm not even a prime member.
Btw they sound fantastic.

Well GL, Could be one reason you say they sound fantastic is because they use 16AWG wire. Big thumbs up for Monoprice. Thick enough to ensure hefty instrument body. I wonder how the treble region is from your point of view? T456

...all the B & M stores will be gone.
And we will only have Amazon and other on-line retailers.
I'm Prime and order everything through them.
Macy's announced they are closing 100 more stores.
I went to the Mall to shop for clothes last Friday. I hate shopping for clothes! I do it maybe twice a year and the plan is to run in and run out with what I need.
Our local Macy's used to have a good Men's department with a huge selection and many items on sale. I was so disappointed on this visit to find less than 1/4 of 1 floor with slim pickings for Men.
I ended up buying a bunch of stuff from Dillard's instead.
P.S. I buy underwear and Levis from Amazon.
They have the best selection of tall man's shirts.
...the good thing about Macy's is that with their credit card we get 20% off coupons every month, in addition to their sale prices.
I use Amazon too ...but for clothes, I want to feel them and try them on.
My daughter is a book hound ...for her a trip to the bookstore to pull books off the shelf, read the notes, pick a few and tote them home is as gratifying as when I used to make a trip to the liquor store (I don't drink anymore). She won't order books on line.
Macy's does suck. I use Lord & Taylor's and Bloomingdales for nice clothes and Bob's and Kohl's for casual stuff. I hope they all survive.

reelsmith's axiom: Its going to be used equipment when I sell it, so it may as well be used equipment when I buy it.
Macy's are idiots - worse website I've ever encountered and their billing department is staffed by morons.
Too bad management can't handle the 21st century; they had some nice sales people working for them.

...last month I bought a shirt from Macy's in a size and brand I already have.
When it arrived it was too small.
I took it back to the local Macy's and exchanged it for one the right size.
Easy, no hassle.
But why one brand has 2 different sized large shirts is still a mystery and makes on-line shopping difficult.
I went clothes shopping at the Mall last Friday. I hate clothes shopping.
I tried on some casual short sleeved shirts that one might wear for golfing. Shirts of the SAME brand fit me differently depending on where that STYLE was manufactured. Some were made in El Salvador, Vietnam, and China. There was no consistency in sizing. I had to try them all on and ended up buying a couple in MEDIUM and some in LARGE. Same thing with shorts. My waist sizing was +/- 2 full sizes depending on the brand.
It's actually worse than that. I had three of the exact same shirts in the dressing room. Same brand, same style, same color. They all fit slightly different so I picked the one that fit best.
Same here Abe, and which store I shop at doesn't seem to matter.
I can remember (in the past) how my wife used to be jealous of the fact that I could run in to the mens department of any store and (knowing my size) leave with several pairs of Wranglers or several shirts (for example) without bothering to try them on, in a matter of just a few minutes.
No more! :-(
...other than my recent purchase, I don't find the sizing as much a problem with shirts as with pants.
Even with Levis, I always try on 2 to 3 pairs of the same size to see which one fits the best - they are all slightly different.
I'm told the variation has to do with where they are in the line for the stamper that cuts the fabric to be stitched together.
They claim that some of the saving from closing those stores will go into enhancing their online business. As you pointed out, it's sorely needed. Why is that? It's not like online selling is some brand new endeavor. Were they not also in the catalog business? Online is, or rather should be, just an extension of their catalog business. Go figure ...
Some sites are not real user friendly. With wide database for selections.
