It's Official!

June 10, 2008
From the looks of the Nichols & Stone web site, it is over! 

For us, at our furniture store, it's adouble whammy.  We lose a great vendor with quality chairs and tables and we have their items on the floor as samples.  In addition, we have orders that are incomplete.  In one case we ordered a chest and matching side table back in January.  We finally got notice that the chest is shipping, but the matching side table is not available.  Now the rep for Nichols & Stone tells us that even the chest will not ship.  That means we have to refund thousands of dollars to interior designers and their clients.



I hadn't realized the implications of the Nichols & Stone closing until I talked with Bev today about unfilled orders.

Guess that's my advice for today.  Check on the financial status, the best you can, on your vendors.

Donna, I received a message from N & S. they said that they have ceased all production and no stock is available.

Sorry, I don't know how to help you further.
