Wayfair is a marketing organization for other vendors. Wayfair does not warehouse everything they sell. For example, we purchased some furniture from Wayfair when we first moved to Utah last September. Two pieces were shipped from a third-party vendor in South Carolina, and a third from a dealer in California.

The point I am making is there is no way that Wayfair can inspect every one of the thousands of items in their catalog being offered to assure it is legitimately what is being offered for that price. They can only stand behind it when the customer complains they did not get what they ordered from the vendor.

It is possible that Wayfair is complicit in the scheme, but it is also possible they are not. Or, it’s entirely possible that there is no there, there, and these cabinets are just exactly as described at these prices for some inexplicable reason due to specific purpose built needs.

Yep but then there are the pillows. Pillows might be already extracted. Cabinets live delivery. The missing kids names on the pillows and cabinets are beyond weird.

As always, Swordy, your input is appreciated.
God bless you.

Perspective is what we are both looking at.
We take what “the medium” gives us and decide for ourselves the depth and breadth of what is there.
We think for ourselves.
Is Wayfair knowledgeable of any schemes that may prove true?
All is second and third hand speculation but, at some point, it approaches “mathematical impossibility”.
Each of us knows where that point is.
We either take it or leave it.

Correct. Often times 3rd party sellers on Amazon/Wayfair/eBay don’t even hold inventory themselves. They get a hold of a database of thousands of items, jack up the prices and list them for sale on eBay, Amazon, Wayfair, etc. Then they try to buy the item when they sell it. A LOT of people do this and due to the thousands of items involved it can be messy. It’s a very common internet hustle. There is nothing unusual here except for the $10k pillows and that is almost certainly a database programming error.
