Buying a Floor Model Mattress

I'd recently made a purchase for a bed frame, mattress and box spring from Wickes Furniture. They went bankrupt and so they're out of the mattress that I placed an order for. After trying over over 30 mattress', I realized that I REALLY liked the one I chose. Here's the problem: They ran out of the mattress at the warehouse and so I'm not getting the one I really liked. They offered no other explanation really so I tried to see if I can find the exact one myself. Result: I couldn't. The only place that seems to have them is Wickes and it's a floor model.

And now my very important question: I don't feel as if I'm being too anal about this, but a few others do. I'm convinced that it's seriously half-witted to buy a mattress that people TRY day IN and day OUT ---every single day--- for who knows how many week? Years? The germs from every human and their household germs are on that bed. And then to know all of that and purchase that mattress that I'll be sleeping on just to get 20% off? I don't know. I highly, highly doubt I'll be purchasing it any time soon but thought I'd get the opinions of those who aren't in this crazy circle of mine.

Any thoughts, comments, opinions would be greatly, greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
-Anthony
