Would you buy this for $100?

[benliong]

I'd get it if I have enough room and my suitemates aren't the type that break funitures. Looks pretty decent and it definitely feels good to eat on a real dining table.

Go for it. Will probably last you well past your college years.

I'm going to go look at it as soon as is feasible. Emailed the owner, she lives about 10 miles from here.

Looks like a good deal to me. It looks like you are going to have a nice first place. My first place was a little more spartan. My roommates built a coffee table out of leftover decking material. It was strong enough for the bachelor party strippers to dance on. Well that was a long time ago, you make me feel old. Ah the good old days.

 

[yakko]

I would not.

My grandparents have what appears to be the same model. Its taken abuse pretty well.

If that was all I could get, yes.

probably not. my first apt, i usually kept an eye open for ppl who moved out holding moving sales. thats where we got out stuff. $15 couch. $30 dinner table. we got lawnchairs from kmart or something for $5 each. yeah it was ghetto, but it held up. and at the end of the year, we sold the stuff for pretty much how much we got it for. i think that table might be hard to move. but that might just be becuz i'm a cheap ass.

 

[bizmark]

Yes, definitely.

<---bought a similar table at the beginning of this academic year for $50, but still doesn't have any chairs for it!

 

[QTPie]

I'd definitely buy it.

 

[BillyBatson]

i would definatly buy it! it looks like it is pretty good quality for 100! somethign like that here is 250+ with the chairs!

 

[poopaskoopa]

With the chairs, yes.

 

[propellerhead]

Too traditional. For a college student in a dorm, get a tall round table and put 4 barstools around it. Add a napkin holder, salt and pepper shaker, and a few menus stolen from your local Chili's. Or, buy some lawn furniture. Get a set with an umbrella. Have some fun before you settle down and get married.

 

[vi edit]

If you were interested in buying one anyway, then by all means go for it! Target/Walmart/KMart would charge $150-$200 for the same thing.

pic doesn't load for me.

-=bmacd=-

edit: pic loads now. We carry something very similar to that at kmart. In fact, i want to say we just had it on sale. For $100, sounds like a steal to me

 

[hoihtah]

it doesn't look bad for 100.

again... as long as there's no noticeable damage.
