It all depends on your budget for furniture Aisha, I've bought most of my stuff from Erin store. Beker is extremely helpful, the price you see is the price you pay, no haggling, it's already discounted. For basic furniture and white goods I've not found anywhere to beat him. However, I have seen some beautiful furniture in Bravo Cassa, gorgeous 3 piece suites, fabulous bedroom furniture, but way over my budget. I'm sure there are a lot more of the good quality furniture shops around, and others will recommend them, but like as I say, it's down to how much you want to spend. X

Wrong I am afraid, there is ALWAYS haggling to be done, especially if you buy a few items . We knocked a 660 lira bill down to 600 by just asking. Always haggle it is compulsory in Turkey.    :)   :)

You must have a knack then because I have spent a lot of money there and he has always refused point blank to haggle. And to be fair hen I've compared his prices with identical items elsewhere he has always been the cheapest.

We have haggled too and had discounts, when I say we, I mean me.   In my business everyone always wants to haggle, so I have been used to doing it over the last 22 years.
I have found Eren Spot great for white goods and garden chairs and their furniture is good if you are going to rent out, but it's basic, you may want to pay more for some comfort and a bit of luxury.   Also found the cupboards and wardrobes always had the same problem with handles breaking, no problem though they keep a drawer full of handles as it seems to be a regular problem, you get them for free, so get a screwdriver.  We gave up on the bedroom stuff a while ago, but as said it's cheap, you get what you pay for and it's really good for renters. ;D

I haggle in Erin spot, I got about 10% of 3 beds last year just by asking for a discount.

I think we all know that if you are non Turkish most places (non food) inflate their prices as soon as you start enquiring about items for sale...Turkish folk defo pay less then foreign nationals it is standard practice in Turkey...
