Ashley Furniture Entire home of furniture for Super Bowl. NOT Scottsdale Arizona

We own a new home that has been caught in the downward spiral of the housing bust! To help recoup some of our expenses, we decided to rent it furnished for Super Bowl week. Rents in our area, close to the stadium, were going for 10-15 thousand for the week...furnished!

Ashley Furniture knew exactly what we were doing and also what our time frame was. We purchased an entire home of furniture on October 19, 2007 and given a delivery date of November 24, 2007, not an approximate date! It was a confirmed date that would include a penalty of $39.99 to reschedule. At NO time were we advised that our furniture was "custom" made and could take longer to arrive.

We could not take pictures for the internet until all furniture was in place. that was about 3 weeks prior to Super Bowl. By then, most visitors already had their reservations made. We were stuck with a fully furnished vacant home. Our "tentative" new renters have agreed to leave the furniture in the home even though they DO NOT want it. They must now store their things and we will have "used" furniture at the end of the lease.

We feel deceived by Ashley Furniture in many ways. They are not ethical.
