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:
“His character as one of the fathers of the English language would alone make his works important, even those which have little poetical merit. He was as simple as Wordsworth in preferring his homely but vigorous Saxon tongue, when it was neglected by the court, and had not yet attained to the dignity of a literature, and rendered a similar service to his country to that which Dante rendered to Italy.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
