It wasn't a surprise... I've been going back and forth with the furniture store for some time... maybe think a few months worth of arguing spread over eight months because of my depression. I had to go back to the store several times to make changes. And wait for staff there to look into what the holdup was.

One person in the office was friendly all the way through... not so much that she was friendly but I really felt she was checking for me rather than just making promises on the phone and hanging up.

They called yesterday to set up delivery today. At this point I didn't want to mention it because of the possibility of another holdup. My only fear was that after all this time they were going to bring the wrong furniture... even I had some trouble remembering what I ordered . I wasn't so much feeling negative about the delivery, but rather anxiety over the possibility that I would have to speak up to the delivery guys if it had been wrong. In fact when they brought it in, wrapped in plastic, I thought it WAS wrong and I panicked, but while they were out at the truck I ripped off a piece of the plastic and it was right. Part if it was the plastic hiding the shape of the couch, and a bit part of it really was me not rembering the overall features of the furniture, until I cut it open and was one of the distinguishing features that led me to pick it.

I ordered a three piece set, black leather sofa, loveseat, couch... with rosewood trim. I'm not even sure I love the shape of the furniture, it is the rosewood trim that I really like.

They couldn't get the chair... in between my order and delivery the manufacturer stopped making this set. They had the sofa and loveseat but couldn't fill the chair. That's what the holdup was. Finally they let me go back to the store and pick out a substitute charir. I picked a red suede swivel rocker, thinkiing if I tried to find something similar to the couch it would look like a mismatch, but if I went completely different it would look interesting and "eccletic" all together. The red chair was questioned every step of he way (including the delivery guys) because everyone thought it was a mistake either in the order or at the warehouse.

Well it is here and I'm happy.
