Spring is upon us and that means that most families are ready to start enjoying the exterior portions of their homes - namely, the patio. Every year at
Atlanta Teak (
http://www.atlantateak.com) we see a huge spike in the interest/neeed/demand for outdoor furniture once March & April begin rolling around. People are ready to put the finishing touches on their outdoor living spaces by decorating it with teak furniture.
The main advantage of buying high-end furniture from a direct importer like
Atlanta Teak is the considerable cost savings that can be enjoyed by the customers. However, because it does take two months for inventories to be restored, sometimes direct importers can be out-of-stock on items for months at a time when the demand does reach high levels.
The moral of the story here is: if you know you are ready to augment your outdoor living space with fine teak furniture, you should be prepared to make that purchase in the March/April time frame. If not, you might not get your new teak furniture set until the middle of Summer sometimes. On the bright side, because of teak's endurable qualities this furniture will be yours to enjoy for the next 75+ years!
Finally, if the direct importer does happen to be out-of-stock on the select pieces that you are interested in it can be well worth your wait to put down a small deposit on the furniture and wait a month for the next shipment to come in. It can be somewhat frustrating to not get the instant gratification of having the furniture immediately. However, think how satisfied you and your wallet will be in a month's time when you not only have your new furniture but you have also saved $1,000's by being patient...and remember, you will have your teak furniture for the next 75+ years
