Ordering Furniture from NC
I have ordered furniture several times from hickoryfurniture.com in Hickory, NC. There are several stores in the Mart which carry various brands of furniture, and I have even travelled to the Mart itself to purchase. If different stores carry the furniture manufacturers you are looking for, they will consolidate your purchases for one freight bill. You may also have to pay FL sales tax on your furniture if the truck is stopped on it's way to your home. You usually pay 1/3 down which can be put on a credit card, and then when your furniture is ready to be shipped, you have to send an Official bank check to pay the balance. You also have to pay the drivers for the freight with an Official Bank check. I've been pleased with their prices & service regarding problems. I ordered a lot of furniture from them in the fall of 2006, but have only purchased one item from them since. I found that Southern Lifestyles here in TV could meet or beat their prices, so I luckily ordered several items from them before they closed.
Another source is Furniture Land South, & I have been told that you do have to pay sales tax on items they ship, but I personally have never used them. It all depends on which manufacturers you want to order from & which source carries it.
Hope this info helps!
