5 questions about what to look for in a cane furniture seller
Cane furniture from South Africa is among some of the most beautiful products for natural furniture selections you will ever see. With its sturdy base and comfortable flex, you get the best of both worlds: comfort and value. But there are many pretenders who sell cheap products at prices that seem too good to be true. The reason for this feeling? The prices are too good to be true! If you want to be very sure when it comes time to buy your cane furniture, be sure to ask yourself the following questions about potential suppliers:
How long has the provider been in business? Years in business tell a detailed story about the type of service and product a provider offers. If you notice a lot of company name changes, you may want to avoid them. Also, if the salesperson is new, untested, and pushy, it’s very likely that making the sale is their only priority.
What are your prices compared to competitors? The internet is a wonderful thing. It connects you with a wide variety of competitors, and the more you dig, the more likely you are to find significant differences, for better or worse, in pricing information. Be sure to use the search engines and find the right type of product to compare.
What is the value compared to competitors? Sometimes a lower price doesn’t necessarily mean a better deal. You should also examine the value of your transaction. How much do you know about the furniture in question? How much can be verified? Ask others whose opinions are transparent and trustworthy. Make sure they don’t have a vested interest in the vendors you’re considering.
What is your knowledge of materials and crafts? If moving the product is your only priority, this will be reflected in your lack of detailed knowledge of materials and craftsmanship. The right salesperson is one who is passionate about what he sells. He’s going to sell you a product he believes in, and that enthusiasm will carry over to the presentation. Quality vendors shouldn’t beg you to buy their product if, in fact, they offer quality at a reasonable price.
Is customer service as important to them, or more important than simply making a sale? What policies do they have to protect it? How easy are they to get? Do they show you transparency in how they are equipped to deal with customers before, during and after the sale? Don’t move forward unless they are, because the worst salespeople are the ones who just want your money without a care in the world about your satisfaction.
