Norton Furniture

Creepy at best.
They sweeten the deal if you pay in cash, and apparently none of the price tags mean anything as you trudge down the stairs, Mark looks you up and down and determines what he’s going to charge you.
I’ll take my chances at Value City first.

I went into Norton Furniture about 6 years ago. I was under an influence. My friend and I decided to go there and see what was all the fuss about. We walked around the strange labyrinth of weird statues and furniture for what seemed like and hour. Then we saw Marc, skulking in the shadows. At first we were scared to approach. He is a pretty big guy and not to mention a local celebrity. If an out of towner ever asked me «What is Cleveland like?», I would play him/​her a commercial from Norton Furniture. I didn’t want to buy a wet bar that Marc wanted to sell me. He got really pissed and got up and walked away. He really does talk in a low whisper like Steven Seagal, only way cooler. My friend somehow got coaxed into buying Chaise Lounge chair for like $ 400. They take a Polaroid picture of all customers and hang them up on the wall. My friend went a second time and out of the many pictures, he somehow stumbled upon ours amidst the thousands hanging. Another added bonus was, if you buy anything in the store, you get to pick out a loaf of white or wheat bread from this giant wall of bread. You also get a t shirt with a line drawing of Marc’s face. It was one of the best days of my life.
