    Probably best to try the bargains section. Bottom of the forum.
    To err is human. To really foul things up ... you need a computer.

    staples is worth a look. the chairs arent the best quality, but when anything goes wrong, they come and pick it up, refund you and then send you a new one, so in effect you get a lifetime guarantee, which is nice.

    My friend's girlfriend got a leather chair from Staples for £30. My ex, got a smaller leather chair from PC World for £25. So I'd suggest checking those also.

    Do you have one of those, of know anyone else who does? Do they last a long time? My current chair has lost pretty much all it's padding now, so it's like sitting on a fence .

    Yea I do, suits me fine. Had it a while and it squeaks a bit, but that's probably because it's had to contend with my large bum.
