The House Shop - furniture now 70% off but our prices have gone up
Mon, 03/17/2008 - 16:13 — pdjohnson
The House Shop in Macclesfield, Bramhall and Stockton Heath Warrington now have a curious sale on. Their prices last week were for a sale which had 50% off, I have been in today to buy some furniture to discover that the sale with "some items at 70% off" means that prices have gone up on sale items. I suggest that buyers be ware of The House Shops pricing policies, sales are not all they might seem.

The House Shop goes into liquidation
An interesting development to this tale, the House Shop in Macclesfield has closed. I discovered that the whole chain has gone into liquidation. This is a salutary tale, we had a very near miss and could have lost our money here. My advice is always use a credit card which offers protection against a supplier going bankrupt. In the end we bought from Arighi Bianchi Macclesfield who are a reputable furniture shop with a superb level of service. They have been prompt, flexible and very helpful in storing our furniture until we required it at no extra charge.
