The Mattress Racket

The Mattress Racket:
Rohin Dhar exposes it:
The mattress industry is rotten. It’s controlled by a handful of players
that make Google-esque margins for no intrinsic reason. Through a
combination of an oligopolistic market structure, heavy-handed sales
techniques and opaque product naming conventions, mattress manufacturers
profit far in excess of the value they provide consumers.
