[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Depends on how long you want to keep it. The furniture industry has transitioned to trendy, throwaway products because people like to change their decor frequently and pay low prices. However, if you’re investing in furniture for 10,20,30 years, $3700 for a couch is not unreasonable. Keep in mind that most traditional furniture can be bought for 40% off any day of the week. So, you should be able to get a $6500 couch for $3700. [/quote] How 40% off? From North Carolina shops?[/quote] Retail mark ups are 40% on high end furniture, less on Pottery barn, Serena and Lilly, etc. Designers can buy at net and charge you the difference. So if you get lucky and your friend is a designer they could buy a Hickory chair at net (roughly 40% off msrp) and sell it to you at their cost. [/quote]
