    We purchased the 5 year protection plan. We have tried to contact any numbers we could locate. None of the numbers work!! The furniture is not steady and the console section is leaning and barely holding on. We just want a repair/replacement. It has been barely a year!! A refund for our protection would be nice. A REPLACEMENT WOULD BE BETTER. TO TAKE CUSTOMERS MONEY AND CLOSE THE BUSINESS IS INSANE!! WE ARE ALL OUT HERE STRUGGLING... WE REALLY WOULD LIKE A RESOLUTION.

    Purchased a 5 year warranty of furniture purchased from this company. Unable to contact anyone who can help me uphold to the warranty or refund my money due to location being shut down. Hoping a complaint will guide me to someone who can assist

    The date of transaction occurred in 12/20/21.
    I paid a total amount of $250 in Layaway
    The business committed to purchase items for price in future (credit).
    Nature of dispute: The company is now closed! The day I went to the store in December 20, 2021, I went due to closing on a new home and wanting furniture. That day I was assisted in picking out a living room suite (chairs, sofa, pillows, rugs, lamps, end tables, coffee table) and made a $250 deposit for Layaway as I would return 12/23/21 to pick up after closing of home on 12/22/21. My items were placed in the front so they would be easily accessible for pick up in a few days and paid for in full during pick up. Upon my arrival, the sales associate informed me that another salesman sold the living suite and items that I had picked out thinking they were on display at the front of the store. I asked what was I supposed to do and the associate informed me that she could reorder the items. I asked for a return of my money and was informed it had to be placed as credit on my account. Furious, I left and went right next door where I purchased a living room suite from ******* **** ***********. Today (06/07/23), I went to the store to use my "credit" as I needed a few items and to my surprise the store was closed and sold to a new vendor. What can I do about my money/credit?
    I tried to call another store and to my surprise again, there are none listed in the United States!

    I had purchased furniture there and had some on layaway there as well and went to make a payment on layaway on March 4, 2023 and there is a permanent closed sign on property. I have paid a total of $401 to this business for merchandise and I received no information regarding the store closing. I have contacted their corporate office of course they are closed on Saturday, so I want hear anything from anyone regarding this until the next week, that’s if I hear anything at all.

    I purchased a sectional from the store in June. It has only been 6 months and it the leather is tearing as well as the arm came off. I have turned in a claim to ******* for the added pet protection and was denied. The furniture is not sturdy enough and I requested either credit or replacement. I am very disappointed with the quality and service.

    I have reviewed the response offer made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and have determined that this proposed action would not resolve my complaint.  For your reference, details of the offer I reviewed appear below.I am rejecting their response due to the fact that their warranty should have covered it in their “5 year pet protection plan” I have not heard from the furniture company. The regional manager ****** has not contacted me. The manager ****** * was supposed to have him call me, but has not followed through. She also refused to give me a corporate phone number to contact them. Thank you for your help so far, if I hear from their company I will let you know. Maybe you could find someone in their office that can help. ? 
    Regards, **** *****

    Although The BBB did not hear back from the business, the consumer let us know the matter was resolved.

     I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and find that this resolution would be satisfactory to me.  I will wait for the business to perform this action and, if it does, will consider this complaint resolved.Thank you for your help with this matter. The Surplus Furniture Store did contact me last week and they did replace the damaged item. I did have to pay for the delivery, but it was what I had requested. Thank you again for your help and time. Sincerely, ****
