Both Saks and Neiman Marcus have seen declining sales as shoppers shift their spending from luxury goods to experiences like travel and upscale restaurants.

Saks Fifth Avenue’s parent company is buying rival Neiman Marcus for $2.65 billion, with Amazon adding a "bit of spice" to a deal that’s been rumored for months. The new entity would be called Saks Global, which will include Saks Fifth Avenue and Saks OFF 5TH brands, Neiman Marcus and Bergdorf Goodman, as well as the real estate assets of Neiman Marcus Group and HBC, a holding company that purchased Saks in 2013.
