Steve,

It may take you less time than you think. Jo posted the original DRV furniture on Craig's List at about 8:00 or 8:30am back on the 11th of November. Within an hour she had a call from someone living about 50-80 miles away wanting all of the furniture and could she come see it first.

Jo said that was fine and that she would hold the furniture until she could see it. Less than 30 minutes after the phone call, she had two e-mail requests about the furniture.

The lady who came over bought both recliners and the couch. She said she had been trying to find stuff on Craig's List for some time for their camper and for their son who needed a couch. According to her, apparently there are folks out there specifically looking for furniture and when it comes available on Craig's List, they buy it. Usually based strictly on the photos in the ads.

So, I would be cautious if you think you still might want to use the coach and haven't gotten replacement furniture yet.

We had looked at the Pinnacle by La-Z-Boy, but the Reclina-Way loveseat in that model would have been $200 or $300 more than the Maverick that we chose. Plus, since Jo is shorter, the Maverick fits her legs better than the Pinnacle did. We liked the Pinnacle because of its shorter length, but price and "leg fit" won out with the Maverick.
