I just bought a king and it measures 74x78 not 76x80. The salesman said they can vary by 2 inches. He showed me 5 others all different brands and they were all 74x78. It is defiantly smaller than what I had. Is there such a thing as irregular sizes and this store has imperfects or is he telling the truth

Mattresses can vary in size, but the standard nominal size for a King is 76x80.  It's not difficult to maintain that size so anything other than that size is by the maker's choice.  74x78 is not an imperfection... it's just made smaller/non-standard.  I would insist on the standard size so that it fits my bed and bedding... before it ships.
