I don't have much luck with Sears. Their site says they have the gasket for my old Oster blender so I visited the store. After waiting 20 minutes for service while they gossiped with good old boys, I was dismissed because I didn't have the part number. Quickly I asked if they could look up Oster on their system but was told "no, we have thousands of parts". Explaining that I'd looked up Oster on their website and discovered that they sell just one is why I chose Sears resulted in obvious eye-rolling and another "no". (I had the old one with me; they is no part number on it.) BTW, incoming calls while waiting on me were taken; for other "customers" they suggested calling back. Turns out Oster has made the same sized gasket for at least 50 years and it's in all of their blender devices. I walked away still unable to make a daiquiri.
Being a girl has it advantages at times but not in parts houses, building supply companies or mechanical concerns.
