Why does Gallery Furniture keep so much furniture in stock, like Tempur-Pedic mattresses, rather than order it after the customer buys it and using the customer's money to pay for our inventory?
It's real simple. Our customers like this wonderful five-letter word: T-O-D-A-Y.
Our customers want to buy a mattress. They're sleeping poorly. They want to sleep better tonight.
Our customers are having a big party for the big game. The big game is on Saturday. They buy it on Friday night. They want it delivered Friday night so their home is ready for the big game.
It's called T-O-D-A-Y. We keep furniture in stock so our customers can enjoy their furniture today and not have to wait 12 weeks on a frustrating backorder slip with 600 phone calls talking to some operator in Bangladesh.
