As a manufacturer of Danish design furniture, we found their style under Kumiko unacceptable and fired them last year as dealer. There's no doubt that they have a place in the everyman furniture market, but they use brands like the one I work for to showcase, and then lead people to the cheaper stuff, which is where they make their money. They also discount 10% off RRP set by manufacturers, which prompts people to go browse and try in other dealers and then go to IDC for the best price. A practise which has made them hated among other dealers in the country. The reason many get the feeling that it's not a place to browse is because they assume you've already seen what you want elsewhere and come to them for the sale.
It will be interesting to see her next move. IDC have severely dropped in quality the last few years, even on the higher end items. Perhaps the PR generated from this public dispute though may help them a little.
