No credit card required
Browse credit cards from a variety of issuers to see if there's a better card for you.
Any recommendations on which furniture stores credit cards are the best. I read that it's not a good idea to apply for credit cards right before applying for a home loan so we'd wait until after we close. I haven't found any recent threads on this topic.
We need living room, dining room and master bedroom furniture. We really need new living room furniture asap. We can keep using the same bedroom and dining room furniture until the rest is paid off. Has anyone gotten the Overstock.com credit card? That's the one I have in mind because furniture prices are inexpensive but the quality (based on reviews) seems very good.
Thanks!
If you have American TV & Appliance in your area, their card is issued by WFNNB and they report as a revolving account.
Thank you both! We don't have either of those stores in our area. But I will keep looking.
What state do you live in?
As far as Overstock.com, WhoGaveMeCredit has a few entries, but not many. The other database I check has only 1 and it's from 2006. It appears to be a partnership with FNB of Omaha, and it also appears you'll want to have a 700+ score to qualify. If you can qualify, the nice thing is it's not just a store card. More info here:

Thanks alot for checking that for me! I'm in SD. I will have to wait until we buy a house before I can apply for anything because we're applying soon for the mortgage loan.

There are 5 Ashley Furniture Homestores in SD. Their financing is through GEMB, who's pretty easy to get in with having scores similar to yours.
