Thanks for clarifying. Apparently I misunderstood your statement
"new is complete junk."

for the most part it is, Roomstore, Rooms to go, Ashleys are
complete junk Ethan Allen, Bassett, Thomasville even Baker and
Henredon are no where near what they use to be.
Hell, even Lazy boy is ****. Most all is made in China. Even some of
the custom manufacturers are cutting corners just to compete.
People no longer see furniture as the investment that our parents
did. It's all disposible to this generation

It's true you have to poke around a bit for the quality stuff, and
open the wallet a little wider. But it's still being made, and it's
still being distributed. The store we bought out living room
furniture from draws customers from several hundred miles.

yes it is, but it is few and far between.
I know because I've been building it for 32 years
