Nebraska Furniture Mart SUCKS!!!

So Mark and i get home last night to find a message on our voice mail that the crib we ordered back in December will not be delivered on the 24th (this would make it the second time NFM has postponed) but that it wouldn't be delivered 'til May. Didn't even give us a date, just said sometime in May. Needless to say, Mark and I went thru the roof. You have got to be kidding me. If we knew that it wouldn't be delivered before the baby's due date, there's no way we would have ordered the crib. So my fabulous husband got on the phone this morning and after much yelling, arguing and finally threatening to have me call them (ha ha not really, Mark is much better at this sort of thing than i would be), NFM is refunding us our non refundable deposit. He really knows how to wear those customer service people out!! So Mark and I will be heading to Babies R Us tonight for a new crib. I'm pissed we have to do this again but at least we aren't out any $$ in the process. We'll probably find a nicer one for a better price too. Only drawback is that Mark will have to put it together. And you can damn sure that we aren't buying anything that isn't in stock. So Peter, I'm guessing you and Mark will have a fun project next Saturday of putting the crib together!! :)

No way! After all you went through with this crib, I can't believe you had to get a refund. Seriously!!!

So did you find a new one? I can't believe NFM did that to you - it's not like it's made of gold :)
