Mail-Order Catalogs
When I was young, my mother received catalogs in the mail all the time. She ordered my clothing for school and items for the home. I am used to using mail-order catalogs to purchase items when I can't get to a store.
Collections Etc., (800) 582-5700, is an old standby. I've been getting their catalogs for 25 years. The company offered seasonal decor in the 2000s. The catologs began to offer clothing in the 2010s. The company offers items for the yard, and comfort items such as cushions and massagers.
L.L. Bean, (800) 441-5713, has a unique phone system that I have not encountered before. A phone call to the 800 number alerts the company rep immediately to the customer’s name, address, phone number, and previous orders. Upon picking up the phone, the rep has all of the information and can address the caller by name.
I remember L. L. Bean from my youth because bean boots were popular at my private elementary school. The company also offers clothing and shoes for the outdoors. Service is professional, prompt, and efficient.
Montgomery Ward, (888) 587-3848, has been "Improving American Homes Since 1872."
The company offers electronics and appliances through the catalog. The company also sells recliners, CD players, and laptops.
Starcrest, (800) 551-2843, offers many games and puzzles for play at home. The California-based catalog company has bags, purses, cushions, aprons, and more.
Bits and Pieces, (513) 354-7909, offers games, puzzles, brainteasers, and gadgets to keep you busy when you're at home.
