    Need a new desk.

    Hi there, need a new desk for my room. Any reccomendations? Dont want to spend more than £150.

    Dont want a L shaped one (no space). Need some draws and I need a big desk for my artwork/etc etc.

    I also want a jerker to mount my Monitor on. But its not a must.

    Thanks.

    Look on ebay and check Staples. I was there about 2 weeks ago and they had some great desks.

    Loads of great offers on ebay as well.

    look in the phone book for office surpplus places, we kitted our entire house out with 5"x2.5" desks for 70 quid (5) they all say property of united biscuits, and one has a bit of scratch on one leg, but theyre fantastic desks.
