    Hi, I've just ordered a new mattress from here: http://www.mattressman.co.uk/?gclid=CL-Xmffc1ZACFQ6hQwodrnQKXA

    There were lots of recommendations on here and the one we wanted was loads cheaper.

    MFI have sales on at the moment. The Rest Assured range is good and there's 4% discount via Quidco.

    Also check Bedstar and Bedworld with 7% and 10% discount respectively via Quidco. Matressman also has 7% off via Quidco.

    As far as I know mattressman don't do divan beds. However I can't believe that you didn't find a bargain on ebay as beds and mattresses are some of the very few things that you can still make huge savings on through ebay.

    What type of divan bed are you looking for, and what is your budget?

    I know that many people are very wary about buying items like beds from ebay. However if you follow a few guidelines then you can save up to 75% on the shop prices:

    1) most important of all make sure that the seller gives a 100% satisfaction guarantee.

    2) check previous feedback for the seller, and even contact previous customers to ask them about the seller.

    3) use a company who display their phone number, so that you can talk to someone about your requirements (they want you to make the right choice because it will cost them if you return it).

    4) check the sellers return policy. Many sellers charge for postage on returns.....can work out very expensive if you have unpacked a vacuum packed mattress, and you don't like it.

    5) try to use a seller who delivers using their own transport. Couriers often damage or misplace goods (believe me I know from experience).

    Obviously you can't try before you buy, but for the saving it is worth the risk if you follow the guidelines above.
