Got this 3 piece(loveseat, chair, ottoman and 2 leather cushions) sofa set from Ashley's Furniture a couple of years ago. There are a few very small and minor torn/scratched spots.. But these are still very comfortable and firm, do not sink or squeak at all. Sacrifice for $100 for the whole set. pictures at: http://houston.craigslist.org/fuo/2489645570.html
Just spit-balling here, but probably because you said "a few minor scratches", yet there's a 3-4 inch in diameter scratch/tear in the front of the middle cushion on the sofa and a similar spot on the top of the chair that you can see, along with the Great Wall of China, from space. Am I close, guys?
right on. nothing wrong with clutchfan members looking out for each other. additionally, you just give off a negative impression by showing your trying to disregard how big the scratches area. these are not "minor" scratches at all and OP, to answer your question, i'm looking to buy furniture for my new apt so don't think that classifies me as a "no life fool" who has "no interest."
