    A true/professional ozbargainer doesnt sleep. Saving money on not only the bed but just waiting for another HN pricing error..

    Maybe people don't buy or look for beds as often as other items. Also like any other furniture products, there are so many brand/model variations which are incomparable between stores, so it's hard to tell if there's a bargain.

    Or maybe people just don't post deals eg. you're a member for almost 5 years, no deals posted but expect others to post deals.

    Beds are are hard to compare, and frequently on “fake” sale.
    So hard to identify a legitimate deal.

      Will only consider it if it has band 28.

    • Xiaomi have been selling mattresses and bed frames for many years now.

    There is a lack of bed sale because everyone are sleeping on it.

      There was one bed deal, but it never made it to the front page because everyone was sleeping on it.

    The industry deliberately makes it hard to compare mattress quality, construction and prices.

    The same mattress could be $500 in one store and $3500 in another where they've simply rebranded it.
    Without specific knowledge on the manufacturing and source, it'll be very difficult to understand whether a "cheap" price is really cheap.

    Also, what's comfortable for one person may not be comfortable for another.
