Sears started as only a mail order store and for a long time it was the first and only one. They began in Chicago because that is where the central rail hub was and they would ship throughout the US by rail everything from dolls to a house kit. They made a catalog that would fit nicely on a table along with the other book people kept out, The Bible. Later, JC Penney came along and they made their catalog smaller than the Sears so the Sears would be under the Penney's catalog on the table. For years they were the only two catalog companies in the US.

However, traditional mail order brides don't exist anymore so you can't just put women up for sale on the Internet. Plus, it would be an awful thing to do. Try breeding dogs or something.
