When buying mattresses, do people prefer products with fixed, transparent pricing, or ones that are open to negotiation?
In furniture stores, we often see this phenomenon: sales associates offer different price quotes to customers based on their distinct characteristics. Moreover, some retailers set product prices significantly higher—sometimes even three or four times the actual cost. This strategy allows them to maximize profits when dealing with consumers who aren’t familiar with market rates, while offering more competitive deals to those who are savvy negotiators. As a result, practices like "marking up prices and then slashing discounts" and "pricing according to the customer's perceived value" effectively create fertile ground for excessive profit margins.

This "price-seeing" sales model is increasingly losing favor with consumers. Everyone has different bargaining power, so when the same product is offered to different people, the outcomes of their negotiations naturally vary. Consumers realize they’re often paying more than necessary—and as a result, they may decide not to return to this retailer in the future. This is precisely why many furniture stores struggle with low repeat purchase rates, few loyal customers, and poor referral rates.
To build a fair trading environment and enhance consumers' shopping experiences, many home furnishing malls and furniture companies have tried implementing "clear pricing," yet very few have managed to stick with it in the long run. In the mattress sector, Donble Mattress—a 32-year-old local brand from Dongguan—has remained steadfast in its commitment to "clear pricing" over the years, earning widespread consumer trust and standing out as a refreshing force in the furniture market.

In Dongguan, products at Donble Mattress specialty stores are all clearly marked with price tags, and uniform pricing is applied across all locations, allowing consumers to easily compare and monitor prices anytime. Additionally, Donble Mattress offers fixed pricing for its products throughout the entire year—there’s no fluctuation between promotional rates during events and regular prices afterward—giving shoppers ample time to make their decision without worrying about overpaying.
It’s difficult for the furniture market to maintain transparent pricing—prices are generally opaque, and unlike electronic products, mattresses can’t be easily compared based on performance. So how can consumers avoid overpaying when making a purchase? According to Donble Mattress staff, mattresses are highly experience-driven products, so it’s essential to try them out in person and compare at least five different options. Additionally, many retailers frequently offer discounts and promotions, so shoppers are advised to take their time, weigh their choices carefully, and avoid rushing into a decision.
