3 piece suite

Post by Raj » Mon Apr 30, 2012 12:26 pm

New suite turns up tomorrow so need to get rid of the old.

Bought from DFS (£2,200 about 6 years ago) and comprises a 3 seater with 2 single chairs.

Nice wooden frame with leather inserts. The frames are in really good nick. The leather on the single chairs is still very good but the 3 seater is slightly more worn (and the stitching has come undone about 2 inches in length).

I'm in Wolverhampton and looking for £100 for the suite.

Will add some pics these evening.

Red cross your best bet ... Just got rid of a load of furniture when moving my MIL and there does not seem to be a market for furniture what so ever.

But having said that, you might get lucky :)

Cheers. Will donate them if I don't get any takers but hoping to get £100 for them. We'll see.

Lol. Personally think being burgundy in colour they actually suit your Vermilion Red and increase its street cred... :poke: :fuelfire: :thumbsup:

Alternatively you could put the 2 chairs in the boot and make it a 7 seater.

Also ads in local papers sometimes work as people aways looking to improve their lot

They probably look worse in the pics than in person. All the foam cushioning is in great condition with no sagging.

As I said, the stitching has come undone. May be able to repair (not sure).

Street Cred? You mean 'Zero' to 'Hero'? Mrs X5Sport will make absolutely certain that NEVER happens..... :cry: I'm so far below the 'Zero' bit into -ve cred territory already... :?

Nice colour though, and it would go with the Vermillion Red.... :thumbsup: Might be a bit 'overpowering' as red on red don't you think?

Do you jump from the stairs straight over the back onto the seats? Just curious how you get wear marks on top. Or do we really not want to know :rofl:

A Team styleeeeeee sucka.

No real wear in the tops. Just the lighting you dirty minded ol' man you... :poke:

If there is wear it will be down to my two little monkeys (aged 6 and 3) who think it's a great climbing frame when playing Ben10.... :(

Lol. Admission is half the battle (well that's what they tell me at my AA meetings... :D )

Personally think Red on Red is superb.
