it’s a money laundering scheme and you cannot convince me otherwise.

Former mattress salesman here it’s ridiculous how much they mark up mattresses 1000%-2000% and get away with it it’s sad

Just because mattresses “should” be replaced every 7-10 years don’t mean they are. Especially at $1,500 a pop. Money laundering 💯

NPR did a podcast on this and they said “We can’t prove it ISN’T money laundering”

People still want to see and feel the mattress they have to sleep on for 8 years. Online mattress companies cannot do that.

And not to mention, they always advertise 60–70% clearance, but they are so expensive that even with that discount you’re still spending a lot of money and it seems like the employees there are weird. They don’t strike ass salesman who are really trying to sell your mattress. They can care less if you walk in and out.

And they buy cheap land in areas where land value is going up and sell when it’s high

No. There’s no legitimate reason for there to be 4 on the same corner it makes no sense.

So, low costs to operate, insane profit margins, and almost no competition (they own a ton of other brands too)

It’s simple business. They literally have to have huge profit margins to survive. Imagine if they made $2 profit per sale. It’s not McDonald’s

I’d extend this to a lot of furniture stores. Massive buildings with one employee working and one or two customers inside

Imagine they get a contract to supply mattresses for a hotel. That’s like a 100 mattresses would pay rent for the whole year

it's the outdoor furniture and appliances stores with no customers and 10 sales staff who truly launder money..

Plus, they don't have to keep stock on the premises aside from store models. Mattresses are shipped from warehouse.
