OK, they're possibly a regional outfit, but there goes another once-respected retailer!

Closing Down Clearance Starts Tomorrow apparently.
They used to sell good quality stuff, then they changed their shops to 'DP Furniture Express' format and started selling stuff of the quality of Trashco, errrrr I mean Traesko....hang on, they went bust as well...
It got worse when they tried to beat MFI at their own game - losing a fortune by selling rubbish....and it worked!!
Bye bye Durham Pine!
