Great resource but not updated since version 1,
By
This review is from: The Furniture Factory Outlet Guide (2002) (Paperback)
First let me say that this book and its previous version saved me thousands -- I'll never buy retail again. For the simple xreference and "all in one place" numbers -- the book is worth its price.Now for why I gave it only a 3. I bought this version because I thought it would be up-to-date (now I see there's a 2003 version!) but it wasn't. Almost no one had a web site or e-mail listed but through my investigation I found most of the companies did. In searching for a vendor that carried a maker of furniture, I heard "we stopped carrying that line 3 years ago" == fine for the older version but not what I expected. I suggest you check out the 2003 version -- hopefully they've scrubbed the listing. The blurb under almost every outlet reads the same "great prices, worth a phone call" but I found that the same outlets seem to always be the cheaper so don't take the author's word -- call around.

Terrific Guide!,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Furniture Factory Outlet Guide (2002) (Paperback)
I am furnishing a new house and looking for all types of furniture. I had heard North Carolina was the place to go. With this guide, all the questions I had have been cleared up. As a matter of fact, since I already knew the make/model # of the items I wanted I was able to call up many of the places in the guide and do my shopping over the phone!! On one item- an end-table, it is retailing for $... - I got it for $... plus only $... shipping (includes set up in my house) from North Carolina to NY!...I know I will save thousands. I have already saved hundreds! The trick to using this guide is KNOWING the make/model# of the item you are after so you can specifically ask for that when you call/visit places in the guide. Otherwise the guide will help you map out a trip to NC if you just want to browse....

Book can be misleading or inaccurate,
By H. NEILL THOMPSON (ST. ALBANS, MO. USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Furniture Factory Outlet Guide (2002) (Paperback)
Used the book on our visit to North Carolina. Found it misleading or inaccurate concerning discounts available, shipping costs and outlets not charging sales tax when shipping out of state. Some of the "So Called Discounters" were not there or out of business and directions were frequently incorrect.We wouldn't do the trip again.
