Stay away!
Purchased a bedroom set on opening day in June 2008. Salesman wasn't too sure of many of the details and we asked if we could take advantage of the 'Don't pay a cent event' and not pay for 12 months. "Not a problem"..."but we need a 25% downpayment"...even though it said nothing to that effect on the signage in the store nor on commercials. "and because you purchased a Sealy mattress as well, you'll receive a $50 gasoline card"..."we've run out of them, you'll have to come back and pick it up"...We refused to pay the 25% down and were walking away when the salesman said not a problem, we can still do the deal if we put $250 down instead of the $900. So away we went after putting the deposit down. As soon as we got home, the salesman called to say that we'd have to come back again to fill out the financing agreement, something that he had forgotten to do. Upon our return a couple of days later (25 minute drive- one way) we asked again for the gas card (Sealy purchase) and again they said they were "out" and we'd have to come back. We asked them to mail it and they were quite hesitant to do that. Since our purchase on the 19th June, we have yet to see a $50 gas card in the mail or get a phone call that it's in the store.
Once the deal was finally done, we were told it would be about a month before we could take delivery of our bedroom set, which was fine with us. We received a telephone call on a Thursday to say the set would be delivered on the following Friday and I asked to have that delayed until the following week as I still was painting the bedroom. The lady said "Monday" and I then asked what else was available and she said "Wednesday". We agreed on Wednesday delivery. We received another telephone call (recording) on the Tuesday to say the furniture was on the truck and would be delivered in a couple of hours. My wife called back and when she told the Service Department about the previous agreement, she was told there was nothing that could be done, the truck was already on the way and that it was our problem, not theirs. My wife had to complain loudly until the Service Department understood. It was put off until Wednesday. Wednesday arrived and the delivery was another adventure. The workers came in, shoes on, and uncrated half of the furniture outside and the other half inside. The uncrating inside left sawdust, woodchips and broken up particle board all over our bedroom. There was also black oily marks on the carpet which we had just steamcleaned which we didn't see as it was covered by the boxes left behind. When they brought in the armoire (two pieces), the driver pointed out it was damaged, it had been dropped fairly hard as one corner was flattened and two pieces on the front had split apart and the upper portion had a chip out of the one door. We were told to call and report that to the Service Department. Once that delivery had been made, my wife attempted to call the Service Department and had to leave a message to get a call back. An hour later they called back, my wife told the story and was told "I'll have to transfer your call". She told the story again to the next person and was told "I'll have to transfer your call" again. This time it was to a telephone that went unanswered. My wife called back and demanded service. As for the marks on the carpet, we'd have to get in touch with the delivery personel and take it up with them! As for the damaged furniture, they'd have to see if they could get another armoire or we'd have to pick something else! Don't think a mix/match would suffice...The saga continues...
There's a reason that Bad Boys logo is dressed like a jail bird! These people are loogans and should be avoided at all costs!
Stay away!!!

Buyer Beware
My wife and I went to the Bad Boy store in Whitby, ON in search of a new living room set. We found a model we liked, though the floor model was a tan colour and we were in the market for something darker. The salesman produced a fabric swatch for the 'chocolate' version of the furniture. It seemed more to our liking, so we made the purchase. Unfortunately, when the furniture arrived, we were less than pleased. With the direct sunlight we get in our living room, the furniture no longer appeared very dark, and, worse yet, appeared more pink/purple than brown. The tags verified that it was the 'right' colour - it was just the change in lighting and setting that made the furniture clash with everything in our house.

I placed a call to Bad Boy's customer service. It went through to their voice mail. I had to call several times to get a live receptionist. At one point I was put on hold for 10 minutes then switched over to the voice mail for reception. When I finally got through to the right department and explained my situation, I was not met with a positive response (something along the lines of "well what do you want us to do about it?"). I was eventually informed by a manager that absolutely nothing could, or would, be done. I could not pay a re-stocking fee and simply return it. I could not get store credit. I could not exchange it for the tan model. So, now I have a living room set that I don't want. I've ordered a set from another store (The United Furniture Warehouse), and they not only let me take home a cushion overnight to check the colour, they've guaranteed that, for the first 72 hours after delivery, I can return the furniture, no questions asked. Other furniture retailers, likewise, allow for the possibility that you might make a mistake in selecting a product. Not so with the Bad Boy.

Terrible experience!
We went shopping at Bad Boy in London last week. We entered the front doors into a beautiful showroom. A few meters later we could hear extremely loud laughter. We immediately noticed that there was a group of men sitting at a table in the center of the store. Beside them were two blond bimbos sitting on a bed laughing and carrying on hysterically. I am sure something was funny but there is a time and place for that type of behavior. They made no attempt to curtail their activities when they seen customers. We both felt that this was inappropriate behavior just sitting on the bed bouncing and laughing, and the table of men, although quiet was very intimidating. We continued on a few feet and simply turned and walked back out. I was disappointed because I really wanted to look around but felt nervous by the greeting crew. I will not be back for any reason whatsoever.

Terrible sales staff!
Wow! What a place to go shopping at. We recently went to the new London Bad Boy to look for appliances because a friend of our was so pleased with their knowledgeable staff when they purchased 5 appliances. We were greeted by a young blonde woman. We stated our desire to look at appliances. With a blank look on her face, she took us to that department. We asked only a couple of questions and she left us standing there. We should not have been surprised because she could not answer either question. All of a sudden she was gone, without a word, and returned with a man, a manager, I think. He was able to answer all of our questions by using the internet. I do not know who my friend dealt with, but, I am sure glad they found someone who new something. The man tried very hard to help us but the woman was absolutely hopeless. I suppose she has some specialty in the store, but she should have stuck to it. If you do not know anything, get someone who does but have the brains to tell your customer that. To just disappear was rude and to stand there and watch like a stalker was intimidating. We left without a purchase and we certainly will not go back.

Unsafe Furniture
My husband and I bought a couch, loveseat and chair set from the Barrie Bad Boys 2 months ago. This set is very unsafe as any time someone tries to get off of it, the whole couch or chair starts to tip. I went in with my parents and we showed him how it tipped and added that it is even worse on our hardwood floors and all the manager could say to us was that he wouldnt recommend that every piece of furniture be placed on hardwood floors. How many people now a days have hardwood floors? So we finally called head office customer service, they finally had a technician come out who had to save himself on our coffee table while trying to get off the chair. He took a picture and explained to us the reason it was doing this was because the way the couch is constructed with the legs being in farther than the legs it causes it to tip. When I called a week and a half later, the guy I spoke to said the technician reported nothign was wrong after standing in our house telling us he could the problem. So I told him the technician than stood here and bold faced lied to us, I said I think you need to have the customer sign the report when the technician is done so everyone is in agreement. And he said to me the customer does sign it, which is funny because neither my husband nor I signed anything because the technician did not fill out a report at our house!
I would not recommend Bad Boys to anybody as they are rude and do not care about their customers. Do not waste your money on their sh*tty furniture.
