Im looking for double bed..with a good mattress and also a bunk bed. Online if possible..just wondering if anyone knows of any good sales, value for money at the moment. Looking to spend around £250 on double bed and £150-£199 on bunk bed.

Do you need a base as well? £250 is not a lot for a good mattress.

I bought my last new mattress at the co-op online it was the best price for what I wanted and the service was brilliant from the customer service team calling me to book delivery to the delivery guys too,

I know that many people are very wary about buying items like beds and mattresses 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. Also read all their negative or neutral feedback.

3) make sure they have recent feedback (unused accounts with good feedback are sometimes hacked).

4) make sure most of their feedback is for selling, and that it is for similar items to those you want to purchase

5) 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).

6) 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.

7) 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.

You can get a very good open coil sprung divan set for £250.

So do many sellers, but who wants a budget bed. You can actually get budget beds elswhere for half that.

Isn't it about time you stopped criticising beds offers on here (not just mine!) and admit you sell them for a living?

Why not go all the way and post your prices and terms so everyone can see if yours are the best deals?

In my opinion, from personal experience, Mattressman has, overall, the best range of bed offers on the net.

My suggestion was not for the OP to buy the £200 bed but to point out they are there from that price.
