Absolutely! Furniture prices are negotiable. Most furniture stores are open to negotiating prices to some extent (can go up to 20-25%).

The average distributor markup on consumer products such as furniture is between 20 and 30%. Retailer markups vary greatly depending on the type of goods and the retailer's business style, although they often range between 50 and 100%.

Point out imperfections: If you spot minor flaws, like a small scratch, you can sometimes use that as leverage to negotiate a lower price. Play the waiting game: If you're willing to be patient, mention that you're considering other options (like a couch sale offered by another store or brand).
