​FACT- Our Industry has a tremendous problem disposing of overstocks of Comfort Returns!!

These are mattresses that consumers have purchased and USED from 30 to 365 nights.

 They are then returned to the store or manufacturer and sold again at salvage prices. 

These re-bagged beds can be bought by  3rd party resellers for pennies on the dollar. 

​​

A mattress is a sanitary item, when used, it immediatly looses most of it's value.       

We've seen these mattresses resell for 50%-80% less than new mattresses.

 

They may be marketed as overstocks, scratch and dents, and close-outs. 

 Some 3rd party resellers even have great stories as to how they get "such a deal on them." 

Too Often, they don't mention that they may be used.

It can be nearly impossible to visually determine whether a mattress is used or new.

​

​You can report those misrepresenting used mattresses as new to-- The Georgia Department of Consumer Affairs (click link) for more information.

 

HOW TO PROTECT YOURSELF​-

​ 1) Warranty- OUR NEW MATTRESSES come with a MANUFACTURER'S WARRANTY!! -Used Mattresses Don't. (Store warranties prove nothing!!!) 

​

 2)  Purchase from A Factory Authorized Dealer.

Manufacturers like Sealy, Serta & Beautyrest will have these dealers listed on their web sites.  

​​

 3)​  ALWAYS Have the SELLER PUT IN WRITING  on your receipt "Brand New-Never been slept on" and  sign it.  Reputable Dealers will gladly do so.

​

Remember -If it sounds too good to be true....
