Service Merchandise is an online retailer and former retailer chain of catalog showrooms carrying fine jewelry, toys, sporting goods, and electronics that existed for 68 years (from 1934 to 2002). The company's former chairman and CEO, Raymond Zimmerman, resurrected the Service Merchandise name to create a new web store in 2004 (ServiceMerchandise.com) after buying the name and logo at an auction.

Famous quotes containing the word service:
“For those parents from lower-class and minority communities ... [who] have had minimal experience in negotiating dominant, external institutions or have had negative and hostile contact with social service agencies, their initial approaches to the school are often overwhelming and difficult. Not only does the school feel like an alien environment with incomprehensible norms and structures, but the families often do not feel entitled to make demands or force disagreements.”
—Sara Lawrence Lightfoot (20th century)
