I’m curious why you don’t consider Saks a department store. Do you feel the same about similar stores generally considered upmarket of Macys? Bloomingdales, No

I’m curious why you don’t consider Saks a department store. Do you feel the same about similar stores generally considered upmarket of Macys? Bloomingdales, Nordstroms (which you did mention), Neiman Marcus, Bergdorf Goodman, to name a few. YMMV but I wouldn’t consider Macys to be a “high end” store.
