DirectBuy® is the leading members-only showroom and home design center that offers merchandise at manufacturer-direct prices without traditional retail mark-up.
Founded in 1971, DirectBuy is headquartered in Merrillville, Indiana and currently has 166 locations throughout the United States and Canada. For 37 years, DirectBuy has been showing thousands of consumers unparalleled
ways to save as they shop for virtually everything for in and around their homes – from furnishings, home improvement, and flooring, to entertainment and outdoor products, accessories and much, much more.
Membership
DirectBuy charges a membership fee and yearly dues to join, thereby enabling members to purchase merchandise at manufacturer prices without traditional retail mark-up (plus shipping
and handling fees where applicable). A DirectBuy membership is valid at any DirectBuy location in the United States and Canada. Members have 24-hour access to DirectBuy’s members-only website, where they can find product descriptions, pictures and pricing, as well as decorating and remodeling tips, new supplier information, and news from their local
showroom.
Savings
DirectBuy derives no income from the sale of merchandise. DirectBuy allows consumers to purchase brand-name merchandise at manufacturer-direct prices -- the same prices that manufacturers and distributors give to retail stores. By providing brand-name items without traditional markup, DirectBuy dramatically
increases the purchasing power of its members, enabling them to enjoy the home of their dreams.
Selection
DirectBuy offers only brand-name, first-run, current merchandise. Members have access to literally hundreds of thousands of products, including specialty items such as custom-order furniture or cabinetry, from more than 700 brand-name manufacturers and their authorized suppliers in the United States, and more than 500 brand-name manufacturers and authorized suppliers at locations in Canada.
The selection at DirectBuy is often much more extensive than at warehouse clubs and retail stores. DirectBuy constantly updates its product database to ensure that members have access to the latest products from the top
brand names in the home furnishings industry. Additionally, DirectBuy members enjoy professional design, delivery and installation services for nearly every product they purchase.
Service
DirectBuy is a “one-stop shopping” destination offering spacious, well-organized design centers where members can browse and select merchandise in a comfortable, hassle-free
environment. New members receive an orientation to help them understand the shopping process and are assisted throughout the length of the membership by trained product specialists in all product categories.
DirectBuy takes special care to ensure that members receive the best service, which includes:
DirectBuy has also recently relocated and nearly doubled the size of its distribution center, which allows it to service more manufacturers, speed delivery of merchandise
and reduce costs for its members.
“I built two homes through DirectBuy,” says Joe Mickunas, a DirectBuy member since 2006.
“My wife and I built a home and we also built one for my mother-in-law. I purchased carpet, hardwood flooring, tile, kitchen cabinets, interior and exterior doors, and two stone fireplaces for both homes. Because of the great savings we were able to upgrade our selections and still save more than $30,000. We alone saved $8,000 to $9,000 on our kitchen
cabinets.”
