Score!
I found a new office chair today at Goodwill. So you can all come visit me during office hours now. This little find set me back $7.99, and goes for about $140 at Ikea. Now, that makes me totally horny.
Speaking of which, it did come pre-stained, and I am not going to speculate as to the nature of the stain. I'm sending it straight to the lab, so I can be sure. But the truth is, although it saves me the time and effort of staining it myself, it is a rather meager little stain, and I'm not completely satisfied that it will be sufficient for my needs. I mean, it's barely noticeable, and when I stain something you notice, trust me. Why go to the trouble otherwise?
I like it, anyway. I can hear it crying out for a rubber plant to keep it company in its new corner, though.
Now you need to paint the room dayglo fuschia and invite JoAnn Worley and Goldie Hawn over....

I had that same exact thought...

Very snazzy chair, Mike. If it came pre-stained, it probably isn't even a real stain. They just lured you in so you'd spend the big bucks.

If I had known that vintage pre-stained mid-century furniture bought at Goodwill makes you go "schwing!", I would not have thrown out my old couch and instead sold it to you for $5. Plus - bonus - I have a history for all the stains too!
