45 days to close that size of sale seems a bit quick to me. Everything I've read said BPS was considering making an offer. Haven't read anywhere were Cabela's has accepted an offer or that BPS has made one. SF

that title is a bit misleading. there's only one store that's set to close right now.
sure wish we could go back to the pre-IPO cabelas. seems like it's becoming more about souvenirs and casual wear than fishing and hunting.

Cabela's is a public traded company, I don't see it going down that fast or at all.

Again, all that says is they are exploring making a offer. If it does happen, deals that big don't happen overnight. SF

Bass Pro sucks ballz. I would have thought Cabela's market cap would be more than 3 billion. Probably opened too many stores in a short time, typical down fall for business's.

That was a pretty poorly written article and not "news". It is speculation based on a couple employees. The news media gets worse and worse.
Cabela's is not closing on January 1, that's just silly.

BTW, after I'm done plunking here this morning, I'm heading to Cabelas, gonna get some of those TSX boolits you suggested for some predator control. Hope you or the little lady have some sewing skills. c/22

Could be what Rich G foresaw when he prophesied, "The end is near!" So, what will be worth more on January 2, 2016, Mexican pesos or Cabela's Club points? Now, might be a good time to go shopping...

c/22 is campaigning to be the official spokesperson for Walmart's new line of Camo Scentlock underwear Stones just stuff your face in this beanie & you're scent lok-ed. You can sport the same purple/gold thong all month.....no need to shower, just fish.

I've met a few women over the years that could have used scent lock panties! Needless to say I ran upon smelling that scentlockless odor.

I've never felt like either one of those companies had a clue as to what is important in the PNW. And as someone said, their prices are too high. I guess they are OK if you like looking at aquariums full of beat up fish! Or plan on bowling while you're shopping! F-em both!
