Chances are, if you live in a larger metropolitan area, there is a Furniture Row near you. That's where the suspicions begin...
Quite a bit like a Mattress Store, Furniture Row seems like a business that cannot sustain itself yet miraculously does. In the company's "about us" section, they say:
Furniture Row® is a family-owned company that offers high quality home furniture at an incredible value. We got our start as four separate specialty furniture stores in a small shopping center - the first “Furniture Row” - and these humble beginnings taught us an important lesson: the power of an enjoyable, hassle-free shopping experience. People loved being able to shop for their living room, dining room, and bedroom furniture at one location, and we quickly made providing a superior shopping experience the cornerstone of our business. 
But just like mattress stores, Furniture Row is just a big, huge building that has a massive amount of inventory just standing around with one or two employees in the building. Yes, it is probably a money laundering scheme.
