Used as in the body was displayed in it, but not buried in it?

Don’t worry… They’ll just wipe it off with that dirty damp rag they use to clean off tables in small diners… there you are… good as new!

Did anyone think of making couches out of NEW coffins that haven’t been used yet? Jeez, I thought this was a cool idea until I read that there’s probably maggots crawling in the fabric!

I had considered posting this, but I’ve never been able to get past the welcome page. Where are the buttons?

And for the person who dies in bed (couch), the problem of moving them is now solved.

Creepy… I wouldn’t be able to not be able to sit there and not think it being a coffin.

They had a couch that turned into a coffin in an episode of the Young Ones, Nasty.

Actually, that picture is of a casket. A coffin has a different shape, ie: tapered at the head and foot, wide at the shoulders. I have a coffin in my house used as a book case, and yes, it was previously occupied, someone came overseas in it and was placed in a traditional casket.

The whole bio-hazard thing? Not cool.
Exchanging fluids on the couch? Tacky.

Ok, here are the truth-in-advertising points:
1. There’s a big difference between a USED coffin and one that is not used because of a cosmetic inconsistency. The latter would be a SECOND, not USED.
2. If the coffin truly has been USED, it’s probably because there was a viewing prior to a cremation. Then there was really a body in it.
These people really need to get their own story straight, because there are huge inconsistencies between their first and second paragraph (and a little engrish too).

These are only used coffins in the sense that they were in a display room where you pick one out. They are either damaged in transit damaged while on display, or new models replaced them.
I doubt if any had any DEAD bodies in them. Maybe a few live ones but no dead ones. They become Hazmat material as soon as a dead body comes into contact with them. And as such the seller could not legally sell them to be used for anything but a dead persons coffin.I’ve never understood why coffins are so comfortable. You are usually dead when you lie in one so who cares how soft the padding is.
Yes I’ve laid in a few. You have to be willing to try just about anything at least once. -

They weren’t used because of cosmetic defects? Because those matter so much when the majority of the casket’s time is spent packed into dirt.

I bought a coffin once. There was only a choice of two, because it had to be oversized. I picked the one that was his favorite color, then found out I would be saving hundreds of dollars with that particular one, because it had a tiny scratch.
