The Dump, America's #1 Furniture Outlet, Celebrates Chicago Grand Opening with its Biggest High-End Sample Sale in History

VIRGINIA BEACH, Va., Oct. 7, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- The Dump, America's #1 furniture outlet selling high-end furniture at dramatic discounts, today announced that its eagerly awaited October 11^th grand opening of its 134,000 square-foot Lombard, Ill. location, will feature 40 unique showrooms of designer market samples recently introduced at the International Furniture Show in High Point, North Carolina.

"To celebrate the opening and our official entrance into the Chicago marketplace, we've purchased hundreds of actual design prototypes from leading designers in home furnishings today – from names like Calvin Klein, Natuzzi Italia, Sherrill, Jonathan Louis, and Old Hickory Tannery. Our customers will acquire these new lines before they reach retail stores and receive discounts of 50% and more," said E.J. Strelitz, President & CEO of The Dump. "In addition, some of the brand names we are offering to our customers are so discounted that we are forbidden to mention them by name. For The Dump to offer a sample sale with a selection of this magnitude highlights the unique nature of our high-end offering to the Chicago marketplace."

To achieve highly discounted prices of high-end furniture, The Dump uses a variety of sources, including showroom samples, overstocks, one-of-a-kinds, factory sell-outs and design prototypes.  To keep overhead low, all locations are open just Friday, Saturday and Sunday.  This schedule also allows The Dump to refresh and replenish the entire inventory before the weekend rush, which ensures a fresh shopping experience each weekend for The Dump consumers.

The October 11^th sample sale will feature savings of up to 87 percent off for pieces in 40 showrooms, including these well-known brands:

• Calvin Klein – The iconic minimalism of Calvin Klein translated to home. An array of pieces ranging from beds, mirrors, side tables, sofas, bookcases and more for the living and dining room, media room, library, and bedroom.
