    Depends on the bed, I think.

    Ours cost more than twice that, but was a bargain.

    Eh, a cheapo bed, once you factored in the finance charges by paying for it in installments over a year or two, would probably end up costing you four times what it could have been bought for if you paid cash.

    A £2,000 bed that was bought on credit? No wonder this country is in the mess it's in. What the hell kind of bed costs £2k? When you can't even afford to pay for your own bed then you should know you've got problems. I love these comedy troll posts. What happens next in this fantasy land? I think he should get the police involved.
