Is this thread still about furniture?
I got a nice new recliner today. I'm sitting in it out now.

Huh?Go clean yourself, Poopy Pants.
Dump?I actually plan to clean two large rugs sometime this weekend.
What do you think @Lily ?
Does your partner do any cleaning around your dump?
Yo Flea Dip, food for thought!![]()
We should start a poll on what month and year you'll get up.Is this thread still about furniture?

No worries. I needed a new one anyway. My daughter dragged me around to three different stores because she knew I'd sit in that old piece of crap forever if left to my own devices.Please post a picture.
I love recliners.
I counted one time how many we have and posted the number here.
I forget the number.
Let me know if you want me to count again.
I'm warming to the idea of a recliner. I have never really liked the clunky type that I imagine Al Bundy sitting in. I don't care for the aesthetics.No worries. I needed a new one anyway.

I'm digging this new one. I got the second best one I looked at. (You have to sit in a recliner before you buy it.) I couldn't jew the sales guy down enough for the one I liked best. But this one is cool. I'd poast a pic, but I never poast from my phone and this place doesn't have a gallery.
Weird how the most hysterical of groomer apologists and folks who melt down whenever the subject is discussed are often guilty of being involved in unsavoury actions themselves.Again.
Do you think everyone is as stupid as you, and cannot see what you're typing. Why is this always an issue with you? You were told, "peedo" and "groomer" accusations were not to be tolerated.
Yet, just like clockwork, here you are again doing the two only things that were ever asked of you. Are you stupid? Why do you keep on doing the things that get you into hot water?
You know what the definition of insanity is don't you? Doing the thing that you already know the outcome to, but you keep on doing it.
Hey not cool, whoever pooped on my post I’m calling the cops!
Just remember: You have to sit your ass in it before you buy. The pics and specs and marketing materials make them all look cool, but you're the one who has to sit in the motherfucker.I'm warming to the idea of a recliner.

Now there are some in modern styling that don't scream "recliner!"...

Can't be arsed. That's like 15 moar clicks.Postimages.org
See? Too many clicks.
Definitely. If it's not comfortable and of a decent quality, it's money down the drain.Just remember: You have to sit your ass in it before you buy. The pics and specs and marketing materials make them all look cool, but you're the one who has to sit in the motherfucker.
We bought a love seat and recliner off the internets a few years back. The price was good, but they were designed for tiny asian people and very poorly constructed.
You get what you pay for.
I don't know who is more owned, you or DeportHe meant that for @Lily.
You have to sit your ass in it before you buy.
Or in her case......
You have to fit your ass in it before you buy.
I bet you the salespeople take one look at her fat sweaty arse and yell hell no.
Does it stand you upright faster than the old one?No worries. I needed a new one anyway. My daughter dragged me around to three different stores because she knew I'd sit in that old piece of crap forever if left to my own devices.

Years ago, I worked a furniture store, we had a good sized mattress room, probably 75% of the mattresses were bought by housewives, roughly half wouldn't lay on them maybe a quick sit, but they'd buy by the look and feel of the fabric "Ma'am you're only going to look at that on Laundry day"Just remember: You have to sit your ass in it before you buy.

The sales guy at one of the stores I went to today was pulling out all the stops. He was my new best friend. I jewed him hard, but he wouldn't take enough off. Motherfucker started off with a $50 dollar "discount." I countered with an offer $300 dollars below the "sales price" which is already marked up at least 200% above the wholesale cost.Years ago, I worked a furniture store, we had a good sized mattress room, probably 75% of the mattresses were bought by housewives, roughly half wouldn't lay on them maybe a quick sit, but they'd buy by the look and feel of the fabric "Ma'am you're only going to look at that on Laundry day"
Unless things have changed, while the mark up in furniture might seem high relative to groceries or even cars, if your in a good quality American or European Made Furniture store at best their normal pricing is what the industry calls "Keystone" that is the chair costs the dealer 500, they keystone it to 995 full retail, before sales prices etc. so roughly 50% sounds like their raping you and and laughing all the way to the yachter harbor, but their is more overhead to selling you that recliner than you think, including paying that greedy salesman and the fixed and variable costs of opening the doors. But with the internet and the growth of more low end chains selling more cheaply built offshore stuff, I'd guess even the quality stores margins have shrunk to try to stay relevant.The sales guy at one of the stores I went to today was pulling out all the stops.

He choked a little, then came back with another $50 bucks. I tired of the game at that point and made my polite exit and went and purchased my second favorite chair at one of the other places I went.
Sometimes sales guys are just too fucking greedy to we poor workers who are just trying to get by.
