Answer 1

Another way for businesses to bank off students looking for money for college. Read the fine print and see if they have reviews and such. If you can stick with the government scholarships, grants, and loans...

Answer 2

I can't speak personally to the reliability of FastFurnishings.com, but there are some positive signs about the company.

1. The website has been in existence and registered to the same "owner" since 1999.

2. FastFurnishings is an Amazon vendor with 67 current "feedback" scores. That's not to say that they're all good - in the past 365 days, the feedbacks have been 81 percent positive and 8 percent negative. Some buyers loved the delivery and the customer service, others hated it.

My guess - it's like most internet based companies. You can save a few bucks using them, but it's difficult to get assistance when things go wrong. Only you can decide if the potential savings are worth the risk of problems down the road. Whether you buy on Amazon, eBay, or any of the best known sites, you'll still find unhappy customers and a lot of satisfied customers, too.

But yes, FastFurnishings does seem to be a well-established online merchant, with the usual complaints that go with the territory.

Good luck to you - I hope that helped.
