I need a bed

[Mercutio]

Did you finally get the bed for Christmas? Is your ladyfriend recovering?

For my birthday, yes.

My friend is doing better now, though she has another month of recovery before she's off all her medical restrictions.

Thanks for both good news

I got a Simmons Beautyrest something-or-other and I'm still waiting for them to deliver the damned thing. Shoulda just gone with the one from Overstock.com.

It was about time you decide on something. I was about to ask you to rename the thread : "I STILL need a bed..."

 

[LunarMist]

How long does it take for delivery, a week or so?

 

[Mercutio]

They said a month. It's been almost six weeks.

 

[LunarMist]

WTF? Is it a custom job or backordered from another country?

 

[Mercutio]

First they said that the model I selected wasn't in stock and they would have to wait for the next time they got a delivery. Now apparently I'm waiting for the company to have enough orders that need to be delivered in my area. Or something like that.

 

[paugie]

Wow! I hope business comes their way fast enough so you can get the bed you wanted.

 

[LunarMist]

Bummer. Don't they have a major bed/matress store in town?

 

[Mercutio]

Major? No. In fact I had to go in to Chicago to get a Simmons mattress because there are no local dealers.

But I'm peeved enough now that I think I'm going to cancel my order and get one from overstock.com instead. They send me emails about mattresses at least once a week.

 

[LunarMist]

Are you bedded yet? :alb:

 

[Mercutio]

Monday after next. They swear they're sending a truck special just for me. Shoulda gone with the Overstock.com deal.

If you have an AmazonPrime account you could have it shipped next day for $3.99 :-D

Mercutio, how's the bed?

 

[Mercutio]

It's a nice bed. It is very large and up very high. I had to make some stairs so my oldest cat can get up on it. I have no complaints directly related to the bed, only to the length of time needed for delivery.
