If you fulfilled all the terms of your layaway contract, Sears is obligated to hold the item for you. See this Sears page.

A good first step may be to make contact with the company's executive offices. Here's the contact information:

Sears, Roebuck & Co.
3333 Beverly Rd.
Hoffman Estates, IL 60179
Att: Complaint
800-427-3049 or 847-289-2500
fax 800-427-3049

If you wish to complain to the Illinois Consumer Fraud Bureau, here's that information:

Consumer Fraud Bureau
100 W. Randolph, 12th Fl.
Chicago, IL 60601
312-814-3000
