Is the furniture that much better than whatever you can get at living spaces for 1/2 the price or less?

I am guessing no.

Nope. It's all about the wood. Much better to find stuff at goodwill and paint it then it is to buy furniture at retailer store.

I am looking for a Cal King bed and it seems there are only upholstered beds in Cal King.

the upholstered bed frames are so so so girly, dude. Like the poster above says, all it will do is collect dust and mites. You literally can't clean it. I wouldn't get anything except wood or metal.

I'd get this:

It's no different than high end clothes, wine, or any other luxury good.

it's expensive because they have really good marketing and brand recognition for what they do, and none of the stuff is "ugly" (where "good" is whichever direction the yuppie winds are blowing in a given year)

you could say the exact same thing for design within reach, just a smaller niche and furniture that's 10x as expensive

Living spaces is decent!

I wouldn't buy a upholstered bed. Also for something like a bed, you don't put beverages and scratch the wood often (unlike a desk or dining table or coffee table) so I don't see the point of getting a nice wood bed. I honestly think IKEA bedframes work.

I find room and board to be nicer quality than c&b for similar prices.

Well nice and shitty furniture both scratch so you should just go with crappy furniture. And you know your wife will want kids soon and they ruin all furniture with vomit, feces and scratches. No point in getting nice stuff!
