Update on Mattress World...

     The mattress finally arrived Monday morning, a day late, requiring me to stay home from work.  Now, I am not one who misses work if/when I am not there.  But, I really didn't want to have to use personal time to do so.  I was willing, however, just to get it done.
     But, then I noticed that the mattress had a brown stain (dirt from the shipping or manufacturing process, I am guessing) along the side, under the protective plastic!  My first reaction was to call and tell them.  But I figured that they would want it back and God o ly knows how long it would take to get a new one.  I just didn't want to talk to "Mark," again, or have to deal with any of that.  It was cosmetic but it could nullify my warranty, I had been told when I purchased it.  I know it was foolish, but I declined to call them just then.
     On Monday, 10 days after my purchase, I called in to see if the mattress cover had yet arrived.  I had been told it would take this long.  Nope. Not in.  Due the next day.  But I was leaving for southern Oregon for three days.  Not really expecting it to arrive when stated I did not call.  Sure enough I finally got a call from Mark on Thursday or Friday, saying it had finally come in.  I told him I would come get it this weekend, when I got back. I no longer really cared or had any feeling of urgency.  But, I did tell him about the stain and said I did not want it to nullify my warranty.  He said he would note it in my file.  I guess I have a file.  In any case, will be picking it up today and putting it on the mattress.  Then, other than paying it off, I hope to be done with Mattress World.
