what kind of mattress? I know someone here sells
I need to buy a "firm" mattress..... I obviously want something decent quality but haven't gone shopping for matresses forever....
what coil count is good? what gauge, etc...
I found something with 660 coils and 13 gauge...??? WTF does all of this mean?

Alright story time.
Found a Chattam & Wells King Size PillowTop that we liked for $4000. Knew a guy that worked at Sleepys, he says we have a "dent and scratch" on up in Reading. So he runs his numbers, $1600 for the mattress, the frame and a split low profile box spring. I go pick it up it's all good.
Two months later, Sleepys calls and tells me that they're doing inventory and would like to deliver my mattress, box springs and frame to get it out of their warehouse and off their books. They deliver, I sell it for $1600.
Total cost = .00.

I'm not sure if Scot is jealous, but I certainly am not jealous of theft. If that were my situation, I definitely would not have allowed myself to do such a thing, knowing that my soul will be tarnished and judged by the higher powers.
Such a thing has also happened to me when we ordered a dining table set. It was only $700 set, but not many days after they'd delivered it, they called and wanted to confirm our presence at home to deliver another set. My human decency kicked in right away and said: "Oh no! It was already delivered last week. Thanks!" I don't know, that's just me. And that's why there are so many kinds of people in the world, e.g. Hitler, Ghandi, Green River serial killer, Mother Teresa, etc. Not everyone possesses the same sense of human decency.
