Aven’s adopted a “No Games” approach to Thomasville products years ago!

The price you see on our floor or on Avensfurniture.com is the real sale price.

And between 8/1 and 8/21/11 you get to choose an additional incentive!

Take and Additional 10% off…OR…Finance any Thomasville item Until 1/1/2014

And pay No Interest!

4641136046435245v10


The days of taking some mathematically generated “manufacturers suggested retail” price list and taking 40 or 50% off to fool the consumer into believing they were getting a deal are over.

Thomasville will either be percieved to be a value or not. It’s all in the eye of the consumer.

I will tell you that Thomasville quality and the higher price for it are a perfect example of the old adage…”You Get What You Pay For”

The beauty of the wood shows up in great finish depth and clearity.

The scale of the pieces. No corners are cut. Thomasville is just bigger!

The function of the moving parts…All designed to last a lifetime!

With a 70 plus year history of selling and servicing Antelope Valley’s best furniture and accessories, you could say that we have a passion for beautiful finishes, the smell and feel of great genuine leather, and the way a room can come together with stunning fabrics and accessories.

Aven’s and La-Z-Boy have been a team since 1986. Wow…25 years. That’s a lot of La-Z-Boy. I would estimate about 26,000 units of La-Z-Boy products have moved in and out of our warehouse.

Since the beginning we have worked to always hit price levels that people like the most. The magic numbers for recliners are $299, $399, and if its a great chair $499. We struggled to hit these prices way back in 1986; and somehow we still hit them today…Over 25 years later.

What other industry can you say that about? Hot price points held stable for 25 plus years!

I can’t think of any.

Every time I need to buy recliners for inventory I start with those hot buys. Do we have enough $299 and $399 recliners. Lately it looks like $299 may actually disappear. But $399 is safe for now.

I always exclude “Hot Buys” for any additional discounts in any promotion. They aren’t subject to “No Sales Tax” or “take an extra percentage off” promotions.

There is nothing worse than saying no to a customer. I just try to explain that a $299 or $399 Hot Buy recliner was a great buy in 1986 and it’s a great buy in 2011. Sorry.

Hot Buys as a category have grown now to include nearly every type of La-Z-Boy product:



   Anderson Hot Buy Recliner $299

Laurel Hot Buy La-Z-Boy Sofa $799
Laurel Club Chair $639, ottoman $369

Motion Sectionals. Dozens of cover choices at this price!

Devon Motion Sectional $2633 as shown!

Carlyle Designers Choice Hot Buy Recliner $799 in a great selection…

All Hot Buys feature selected frame styles in selected fabrics at great prices!

We keep a huge inventory of Hot Buys so you can have it right now. If you pick a hot buy cover we don’t have in stock…delivery on special orders is about 4 weeks on recliners and 6 to 8 weeks on stationary, and motion sectionals.

Thanks for reading!

Springtacular with Disabled Sports Easter Sierra (DSES) April 2011

Disabled Sports Eastern Sierra

Aven Furniture Co. Lancaster CA

My son Brian was born 9/25/85. He suffered a brain anurism when he was 3 days old. He has spent everyday since, recovering.

For the past 18 years we have been attending an event in Mammoth California that puts special needs people on skis. This is a truly amazing event. Participants arrive at the opening ceremony of this 4 day snow focused event with a wide variety of physical and/or mental impairments.

After the Star Spangled Banner and a few words of encouragement from director Kathy Copeland, all the special athletes start towards the snow. When they first get on skis some are barely able to stand up; then with the help of one… or several volunteers, they are soon feeling the wind in their faces and the terrain flow under their skis.

Brian has been skiing since he was 8. He was on a 30 foot fenced in area with almost no slope for only the first few hours of the first day. He was so insistent on being allowed to ride the chair lift that he conned a Mammoth Mountain Ski Instructor to take him on the chair.

We rigged up an elastic brace that kept his ski tip together and he went right down the hill. When he would fall we would just grab the back of his jacket and stand him back up again. We found out early on that he had no injury at all to his sence of balance.

Imag0043

Flash forward to 2011 and Brian is 25 years old and weighs in at 170 and is 5’10″ tall. He remains non-verbal although there should be no doubt that he communicates his every desire and need in his own way, but in a way that you are sure to grasp, even if you are meeting him for the first time. He still likes to ride on the chair lift. He still like to play with boxes. He still like to play with balloons.

And…Brian can ski.

Now we fasten his ski tips together with a special ski brace made of stainless steel. We control his decent speed with tethers clipped to the ski tips. We stear him down the hill. Brian has been on the same two runs for the past 17 years. The big smile on his face tells us he he likes it!

Over the years some of our families best friends have come from this event. Some are employees of Mammoth Mountain and some are volunteers with Disabled Sports Eastern Sierra. I cannot tell you how good it feels to think of you all as friends. Every year we greet each other with hugs on the first day. Wondering what new achievement we will witness on the snow this year. Every year we end the 4 day event with more hugs, sorry the event is over, and that it will be another year before we have a chance to see it happen again.

There is never any doubt as we leave the Mountain that we were part of a life changing experience for the Special Athletes…and for ourselves.

The Right People…Key to Aven’s 75 year history!

http://www.avensfurniture.com

There are dozens of people that go into the success of any small business.

There are probably no more than 10 that have been the key to this small business success since 1937.

There is only 1 that has proved to be completely indispensable to our survival.

Is that person me??      Nope…not even a close 10th.

That person is Bud Kelly.

It will no doubt shock the reading public to learn that everything you buy does NOT come out of the box just like a new cell phone or Flat Panel TV. That is to say…perfect, pristine, and ready for use.

Furniture comes out of the box in varying condition. Every piece we un-carton requires at least the touch up of packing rubs, leveling of doors, and general cleaning. When I see furniture delivery trucks in my neighborhood (imagine the shock) un-cartoning goods in the consumers driveway, it always makes me wonder how ignorant of consumer expectations those dealers could possibly be.

I actually think those dealers are idiots…is that too harsh??

Bud Kelly worked with Kelly Johnson of Lockheed SR-71 fame. Yep. He is that good. He solves problems…period.

He can make products better than the factory did in the first place.

You are probably wondering if you have received any of his repaired furniture over the years. Hopefully you have. If Bud Kelly worked on it, he improved it.

Consumers have amazed me over the years. The slightest imperfection…real or imagined…leads to this statement, “I want a new one, I didn’t pay for repaired furniture”.

The truth is that regardless of price…the next “new one” we order for you will have it’s own set of issues.

Furniture is made of wood and wood products. It grows from the ground. It is all imperfect!

Bud Kelly makes the imperfect…perfect!

Regardless of the problem…nothing goes back to a furniture factory. Stores all over America have failed over the past few years for a variety of reasons. One of the main reasons is that they die of ordering more and more goods to replace imperfect goods un-cartoned in a consumers driveway.

They don’t have Bud Kelly.

I do.

Thanks for a career Bud. We all love you.

Love,

Bob

Magnussen Home Bedrooms are fantastic!

Emerson Bedroom

http://avensfurniture.com

We started carrying Magnussen Home occasional tables 10 years ago. These tables today are my go to source when I buy tables. They are stylish, well made, arrive to us in perfect condition, and best of all…people like them.

Like every factory I have dealt with over the last 25 years…they all want to eat each others lunch. Companies that make sofas want to make motion. Companies that make casual dining want to make tables, and media consoles.

So it was with Magnussen Home. They became known for their tables, but wanted to be in the bedroom business. So 6 or 7 years ago they started making bedroom furniture. We bought them…notice I will always say we it was a bad idea…These bedrooms were a bad idea. The finish was poor, the scale was wrong. We and they made a error. They shouldn’t have made them, and we shouldn’t have bought them.

I don’t like to repeat failed buying efforts…so I ignored there invitations to even look at their bedrooms at Markets. I ignored them for 5 years.

Until last October…

Classic European Styling

What a great casual, relaxing, bedroom

I was so impressed with the value and finish of their new bedroom program that I ordered four sets. Two to ship right away and two more to ship in 90 days.

It should come as no shock to anyone who may read this that nearly all furniture in stores today…regardless of high end or low end…is imported from somewhere.

Storage Sleigh Bed in King or Queen

I need to buy these bedrooms at least 2 at a time to get the best pricing and best freight rates. When I buy right I can save the consumer around 15% additional off the sale price. That amounts to at least $500 over the local warehouse price. The consumer has to wait for it to ship across the ocean…but the additional savings helps ease the pain of having to wait.

Great Cherry Bedroom

Magnussen makes about 30 bedroom styles. So far we have space for 4 styles. We have sold 2 sets in the past 30  days!

That’s success in my book!
