Receivables [Abstract] |
Loans, Notes, Trade and Other Receivables Disclosure [Text Block] | Notes Receivable As of December 31, 2012 and 2011, Notes Receivable were comprised of the following:
|  | December 31, 2012 |  | December 31, 2011
Due from Bakers Footwear Group, Inc. |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | 4,092 |
Due from Betsey Johnson LLC |  | — |  |  | 3,309 |
Due from seller of SM Canada (see Note B) |  | 3,085 |  |  | — |
Total |  | $ | 3,085 |  |  | $ | 7,401 |
On August 26, 2010, the Company entered into a Debenture and Stock Purchase Agreement with Bakers Footwear Group, Inc. (“Bakers”) pursuant to which the Company paid $5,000 to acquire a subordinated debenture in the principal amount of $5,000 and 1,844,860 unregistered shares of Bakers common stock which traded on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board. The Company allocated $996 of the purchase price to the common stock and $4,004 to the subordinated debenture based upon their relative fair values. Interest accrues on the debenture at the rate of 11% per annum and is payable quarterly in cash. The principal amount of the debenture was payable by Bakers in four equal installments of $1,250 due on August 31, 2017, 2018, 2019 and 2020. The difference between the $4,004 purchase price of the debenture and the $5,000 principal amount of the debenture is considered original issue discount and is being amortized over the life of the debenture. During 2012 and 2011, the total amount of the discount amortized was $145 and $88, bringing the value of the note to $4,148 and $4,092, respectively. On October 3, 2012, Bakers filed for Chapter 11 protection in the United States Bankruptcy Court. As a consequence of the bankruptcy, the debenture due from Bakers (as well as the common stock) is considered impaired and, therefore, was deemed to have no value. Accordingly, a charge of $4,148 (as well as a charge of $996 for the write-off of Bakers common stock) was included in the Impairment charges and provision for litigation. In January 2013, Bakers announced it intends to liquidate or sell all of its remaining assets. In April 2012, Betsey Johnson LLC filed for Chapter 11 protection in the United States Bankruptcy Court. Shortly thereafter, Betsey Johnson LLC announced that it would commence an orderly liquidation of all of its assets. As a consequence of the bankruptcy, the note receivable due from Betsey Johnson LLC is considered impaired, and accordingly, an impairment charge was recorded and the value of the note was reduced to its anticipated recovery of $500 in the second quarter of 2012. In the fourth quarter of 2012, the Company collected $1,522 and recorded a $1,022 benefit related to a greater-than-anticipated recovery of the notes receivable.
