Default Furniture Country of Leesberg files Chapter 11

Well they filed Chapter 11 as my furniture sits in there warehouse.

They have held it in storage for a few months till my return to TV.

I had setup a delivery for this Wednesday to find out they filed on 12/19/08.

Right now I am looking to find what courthouse they filed in so I can go

during the case and try to see the judge. All items are paid in full months ago

so I hope I didn't get screwed. If anyone has any info where I can go find

any info like were to go it will sure help.

Hope you paid with a credit card - it could cover you loss.

Go to their website, www.fcgalleries.com, where you will get all the information you should need.

In addition there are 2 articles in the Leesburg Daily Commercial, www.dailycommercial.com. The first is dated 12/24 and the second is dated 12/30.

Darn, sorry to hear this..... Furniture Country was our favorite local furniture store...we bought several pieces from them. I sure hope those who have deposits down will either get their order or their money back.

This may be the first of many retail closings to come...

I wish you luck bubbaLarry.

Default Country Furniture of Leesburg

I saw postings on Contracters and Services forum and thought perhaps this posting should also be in this general forum. Country Furniture of Leesburg has filed for chapter 11. I for one have ordered furniture from them and was waiting for delivery at end of Feb. Does anyone know of more details? Such a shame, such a nice store.

Peazoup,

Does this mean that they are having some great sales?

When I called their phone number, there is a recording that states they will be closed for a while getting ready for a sale. Nice for people who can take advantage of the sale, not so nice for those of us who have paid but not had delivery yet.

Sorry Peazoup, that certainly is a big worry. I sure hope your situation gets rectified soon!

Peazoup, I would suggest you pm Bubbalarry in the other thread on this subject, cause he has a lot of information on the status of his furniture order, which according to him last night, was to be delivered this morning at 8:30. So hopefully, he got his order. He got in contact, I believe, with the lawyer handling the bankruptcy, so its a matter of digging a little deep to get your information. Let me know if I can help...
