Rustic Furnishing Web sites

There are a host of rustic furnishing sites out there that offer great products. However there are more that are bogus than you would think. We at LodgeCraft http://www.lodgecraft.com have been in the rustic furnishings market since 1988. Over this time we have had our fair share of feedback and heard concerns voiced from many a customer. One of the most common complaints is that customers buy something from an online store and they can not get any support when a product is damaged or they can't re-order or find the site again. Well, the unfortunate fact is that there are so many people operating on the margin for competing products that sites that are not accompanied by a physical storefront often go belly up. Sounds great to operate with little or no overhead, have rustic furnishings drop shipped from vendors and then watch the money roll in. The reality is that it takes a lot of teamwork and constant updating, you also need the infrastructure to support a growing business. Many times the bottom falls out after offering products so inexpensively and in a year or two they can't tow the line anymore and you are left unsupported. The dollar amount that you pay for a product is often only half of the picture. Do the research, all of the information is there to go with a company that has the staying power to support your needs now and in the future. If the company has a manufacturing facility that is always a huge plus because you know they are informed on the process involved in making furniture, shipping and supporting their products and the others they might sell. The cheapest price is often just the cheapest price and not the best value..
