Top 10 tips on how to buy furniture:
1)Do not skimp out on the price – furniture from cheap outlets are often defective, uncomfortable, and unsightly.
2)Have a budget set beforehand – salespeople are skilled at promoting and selling the most expensive piece on the lot, don’t give in to the temptation, have a price range in mind.
3)Go with your gut feeling – if you like a piece, indulge yourself but don’t buy furniture just because the price looks nice. Remember that you will be using it for a very long time (hopefully).
4)Shop around and wait for major sales
5)Don’t let your money pay for BMWs – many of the overrated galleries and stores sell almost the same styles and design as less-expensive, national brands.
6)Be wary of antiques – not only are antique furniture are to match and form an aesthetically pleasing set, you can easily be scammed. Bring a knowledgeable friend along.
7)Flea markets can have nice finds, just make sure it’s not junk but something that’s of value.
8)Don’t get suckered into buying an extended warranty.
9)Haggle! – negotiate, bargain, most salespeople have a certain bottom line above which they’re quite flexible. Just make sure you’re nice about it.
10)Try to buy a whole set at once – not only do you get a better deal, you save on delivery charges.
