What Do You Know about DirectBuy?

I’ve seen those commercials on television for directbuy. You’ve probably seen them, too. It’s usually a couple talking about how they bought some piece of furniture or something else for their home at a discount price. All you have to do is sign up with the company. Has anybody tried this? My wife and I are searching for a home and this would come in handy if the claims are true. They say that you can get a nearly 50 percent discount off of the retail prices alone! It’s a member-only type of business and you have to go to the showroom to see what they have. My friends were going to try it awhile ago, but they weren’t too sure of it. Any thoughts?
