Anybody know any decent furniture deals? I found that $100 off your first $500 at furniture.com, but is there anything smaller? I don't really have a need for spending $400/$500 right now.. maybe like $ off $100 or $200 deals?

I wouldn't buy anything from furniture.com unless you plan to wait a long time for it. I ordered a bookcase that was supposed to be delivered in 4-6 weeks and still hasn't arrived 6 months later. I ordered it at 20% off and received an additional 10% off because it was supposedly damaged 4 months into the order and sent back to the manufacturer. I will wait and see. I've kept a running log of my contacts(after waiting several minutes on hold) including the CEO and head of their customer service dept. I have a complaint filed with the Better Business Bureau, but they say that they are trying to remedy the problem and can't do anything until they have failed. I have 2 more weeks to wait then they are stepping in.

I may even feature it in an upcoming article.

Also check out the comments made at Gomez.com,who ranks them as the #1 online furniture retailer, maybe 5% of the comments are positive...

You can make your decision from reading that, but I would advise against buying from them.

Good lookin' out Sand. This is exactly why we need to consolidate this information in one place. Whatever happened to those plans, Apex?
