You might want to click on the "Policy" link at the bottom of the page to ensure you are comfortable with their policies. For example, with Boyles, you pay half down and the remaining half when the furniture is delivered. LeatherShoppe requires you to pay half when ordering and the remaining half BEFORE your furniture is released to the delivery service.

Since I asked the question, I thought I'd give you an update. I got 2 emails the same day, after checking on the status of the order. One said that the factory expected completion some time the week of August 24th. The next one said that the factory had notified them that the order was complete, they were billing me for the remaining balance, and that the shipping company would notify me of a delivery date. I'm a little unnerved that they bill me and effectively leave it up to the shipping company from there. I'll see what happens this coming week.
Stay tuned for updates if you're interested.

The shipping company has delivery scheduled for Tuesday. We'll see what happens :)
