Cheapest UK Sealy Memory Support Mattress
I announced last week we had reduced the double Sealy Memory Support mattress from £399 to £249 and the Kingsize Memory Support mattress from £449 to £299.
Today I announced an increase of £50. Why? We only had 240 and the response has been unbelievable. We sold almost half in one week and, truth be told, the Memory Support at this price has stopped any other mattress from selling.
It’s profiteering I know but what would you do? A fair compromise I think; still a bargain, but we make a bit more profit and the wolves are kept from the door for another week or two.
It was a bit depressing this week hearing that Silentnight and Sealy have to refinance. If super-brand Companies like this are hurting what about us mere mortals? Personally I have never seen it so tough. I wasn’t about in the 1988/89 property crash but when I did come on the scene in 1993 the effects on the furniture trade had long subsided. Not so this crash.
Of course back then I may have single-handedly rejuvenated furniture retailing. I did tell Geoffrey Wiseman, the MD of Ducal Pine, his stuff was on the way out. He went on to sell out to the Silentnight Group right at the top of the market just when Ducal were going down.
Word is it’s Geoffrey’s generous pension that is cocking things up for Silentnight now. It’s a small world. I’m not taking all the blame.
