Now more than ever, a good office chair is of high value.
Many of us sit in front of our computer screens for hours on a daily basis, and having a good chair can determine how long we can work productively.
I was surprised how much of a difference a good chair can make, both in terms of health and comfort.
One of my more recent chairs was purchased from Fry's Electronics. It cost around $119.00 USD
It wasn't great, but it allowed me to do my work at my computer. In fact, it was one of the only chairs I owned after moving.
Fast forward to one year later… The damn thing broke. Now I only weigh about 180lbs, I leaned back in my chair for a stretch, and the back snapped! What a POS.
Nevertheless, I trudged along with the broken chair. I decided, next time I'm going to spend some money on a good quality chair. So my search began, I checked Amazon, Best Buy, IKEA, used furniture stores. I was willing to spend around $200.00 USD, but I couldn't find anything decent in that price range. Most decent office chairs cost North of $300.00!
So I checked Craigslist, and found the deal I was looking for… $80.00 for a lightly used Hon Ignition Chair. These chairs retail for around $380.00 on Amazon. It just so happened that an office move occurred and the company was selling them at a discount!
Moral of the story, don't be afraid to buy used office furniture, and check Craigslist! Today's tough economy is unfortunate to many businesses, but to the benefit of the average joe, there are sweet deals to be gained in office supplies and furniture. A great opportunity to buy high quality goods at low prices.
