Nice.
However,12 years of me being here,and finding loads of Hexites good bargains means I have no real reason to tell porkies anyway!
This is the company which made the chairs IIRC:

Main designer:

Even won a red dot award for his chair designs.
They do business furniture and its not cheap but they are designed for long office usage,but it also means office surplus and furniture surplus places will often do them reasonably cheaply due to over orders or companys going bankrupt. The same goes for auctions,etc and I know people who have got loads of stuff from there.
Like with a lot of these things,what is the chance you will find the "gaming chair" is a rebadge of some cheaper model made by an OEM??
The business furniture OTH is built to last,but OFC don't expect the brands to be mega-advertised to the general public.
I even remember going back to the 90s,there were places(warehouses) selling loads of these things down south. They were businesses which bought and sold these kind of things in bulk,so you could visit these companies and get a chair or two for not much. New,slightly used,etc take your pick.
OFC,not much use if such places are not near to where you live,but if there are places nearby they are worth checking out.
He deffo knows where to look.
