The trustable and quality mattress stores in Ocala for satisfying your mattress desires

Q: I’ve heard that there is a HUGE markup on mattresses.  I’ve also heard that many companies inflate the price to then put it on sale.  How do I know if I’m getting a good deal, and that I’m not being taken to the cleaners?

A:  Many customers are frustrated with the mattress industry, for many reasons.  Most beds are named differently, or not sold to multiple retailers, so it’s difficult if not impossible to cross shop.  There is, however, a way to buy truly discount mattresses.

The markup on mattresses is higher in dollar amount than many other items, such as food or clothing, but it’s close in percentage.  It’s right in line with other items of the same price range – televisions, other electronics, carpeting, etc.  Also, mattresses are not entirely made by machine.  All the sewing on the mattress is done by a person and a sewing machine.  All the layers are picked and laid in order by a person.  Those are people that need to be paid.  Also, most mattresses are still made in the USA, where wages are higher than overseas. 

Most mattress stores, independent or chain, will negotiate on the pricing.  While some stores will have more play than others, you can usually expect to get a minimum of 25% off.  They may have to apply a coupon, call a manager, or check the warehouse, but they can do all of this while you are there.  If you don’t get the price that you want, feel free to walk away and try another store.  You’ll never know whether you got the “bottom” price or not, but that’s not really what’s important, in the scheme of things.

You can’t put a price on a great night’s sleep.  You can buy a cheap mattress, and get a great deal, but sleep horribly and wake up in pain for the next ten years.  Or, you could find a mattress store Ocala with an educated salesperson, and really find the mattress that’s perfect for you.  After you’ve found it, negotiate the price until it’s in a comfortable range for you.  The thing that’s most important is to purchase the bed that’s the best for you.  I’ll promise you that if you’re waking up with back pain and can’t get comfortable, you won’t care that you saved an additional $50.

Finally, if you’re suspicious of the retailer jacking up the prices, visit them a few times over a few months.  Compare the prices on the same mattress or mattresses, and wait for it to go on sale.  You should be able to determine whether the mattresses on sale are a good deal or not.

Good luck, and remember – the most important thing is a great night’s sleep.  Happy shopping!
