Unfortunately, the economic crisis manifested itself in the rise in prices for such consumer goods as furniture. And even if production and raw materials have a domestic component, components, fittings, equipment and consumables are in most cases imported and tied to the exchange rate of foreign currencies. A way out of this situation can be the purchase of furniture in one of the stores of the chain of discount centers, where a wide variety of headsets, tables and chairs are presented, discounts which range from 30 to 70% of their original cost.
What is the secret of big discounts
Furniture, especially non-collapsible types, such as designer dining tables or ultramodern chairs, are not always sent to retail chains by the manufacturer in disassembled form. Inaccurate transportation, unloading and warehousing can cause a minor defect that does not affect its performance, but is the reason for the loss of its presentation. It is for such samples in the discount center that such a favorable discount is provided. Such a cosmetic marriage as:
- A small chip on the wooden leg of the table, which after purchase will be close to the wall and no one will notice it (price 26 thousand rubles, after a discount for the presence of a defect 17 thousand rubles) .
- A scratch on the chrome-plated chair leg, almost invisible from a distance of more than one meter (price 2.9 thousand rubles, after a discount of 2 thousand rubles).
- An armchair with a stain on the fabric seat, which can be easily removed using special chemicals (price 12.1 thousand rubles, after markdown, 7.6 thousand rubles).
And these are just a few examples of hundreds of items of discounted goods. Practical buyers who know how to count their money have long become regular customers of discount centers, furnishing their apartment with inexpensive but high-quality furniture of imported or domestic production.
In addition to markdowns of furniture that have lost their presentation due to cosmetic defects, profitable promotions are regularly held in the discount center stores, which currently number about 180 in various cities of the country. They consist of providing discounts on last year's or out-of-range products, as well as holiday sales. All furniture purchased by the centers provides a guarantee and an obligation to replace if it does not fit in quality, size or completeness.
