Another odd looking Bergerac Oak table

Here's another Bergerac Oak dining table with the same odd colouring as the other pieces I've seen on ebay recently... is this maybe an older colour that John Lewis used to do? Our bookcases are the mid coloured "Alsace" range, it's not that, but we ...

Apothecary cabinet went for �395

See it here, wonder if it will reappear on the listings again. Could have been a proper bargain, but that picture looked suss, like someone had revarnished it themselves.Speaking of REVARNISH, well kind of, I keep looking at words and thinking "that'...

Apothecary cabinet strangeness in Surrey

You will of course remember this cabinet that I bigged up recently, it was listed for �100 and I put in a few bids for it, as I liked it and it's full price would be over two grand and it matches what we've got. It sold in the end for �545 to someone...

Nice weekend, quiet weekend

Nice weekend. Changed our Friday night outgoing plans and had a quiet one in. Saturday went to a 92nd birthday tea for Clare's gran over in Tenterden, home for a brief siesta, and then out to The Guildhall with visiting family and friends. Took a bri...

If we could get this for �100 that would be FINE...

Bergerac Oak sideboard / display cabinet....

Tsk

It's the John Lewis furniture that is rustic, the Habitat furniture is all web2.0 style clean lines and curvy corners...Clare got a "place", winnings were less than the cost of putting the various bets on, but we'll get our 25 quid back I hope. Have ...

We nearly bought one of these

and perhaps should have done, half price Bergerac Oak TV stand. If you can collect from Glossop. Not worth organising a courier for really.Been a while since I posted any furniture bargains. Will be a while again before we buy anything I suspect. All...

Weather report part two

Ferocious rain woke us both up in the night, a proper downpour again. Clare got the fear that the weather might have resulted in our pilot light going out (it happened before), which would mean waking up to cold showers, so I got up to check on it. W...

Two completely different properties this week

Saw two houses yesterday in Canterbury, wildly different, and they highlight the fact that we want somewhere exactly in between, which is something that does not exist, at least within our budget...First house was in Vernon Place, and though we're id...

Four tables, four prices

Hmm I suspect these four dining tables are actually the same table, but you can pay between 900 and 1250 pounds for them, depending on whether you want the table with just four chairs, four chairs and a bench, five chairs and a bench, or two chairs, ...

You wait ages for a John Lewis Bergerac table

And then two come along at once. This one looks like a genuine sale, be lovely to think it stayed near it's opening price of fifty quid and didn't sail up to the thousand pound mark, but unlikely. As a bonus there you get to have a nose around that p...

I am outbid

I figured out how to get the furniture I am after couriered down from Preston with the help of a really cool website (that I have temporarily forgotten the name of) where you advertise what you want doing and all sorts of couriers and hauliers and ma...

Bidding's going crazy on the Bergerac Oak sideboard

9 bids so far, up to over 650 quid, looks like being not such a bargain for me when you take into account getting it couriered down from Preston. Still no bids on the bookcase but I expect that'll pick up today or tomorrow too. Interestingly (well, r...

Stuff I want!

This bookcase and this sideboard, good starting prices on ebay, sure to go up to about 3/4 of their shop price though anyway, and how do I get them from Preston? Do I organise a courier? What's that cost? Collecting them myself would be too dangerous...

John Lewis Bergerac Oak TV Stand

This is what we should have got when we bought our sideboard, maybe. I am in a quandary still, I don't like the open shelves, but I do need access for DVD players and things.. This one is too high a starting price anyway, it's being sold by a busines...

Magic darts

Turned on the final of the Lakeside World Championship last night while we were having tea (Sunday, so chilli), and nearly turned it right off again as it looked like a bit of an embarrassing white washing, Martin Adams bein six sets to nill up again...

At least that Bergerac range is nice and light...

Lordy, that's not good! We have a couple of bookcases, and whoever did the delivering brought them up four flights of stairs without comment. Looks like we were lucky!

RE: Number one result for "Habitat Radius"

I like your taste in furniture, said the man who recently took delivery of a Bergerac dining table.The furniture is fantastic, the jobsworth JL delivery geezers not so. They refused to bring it inside my house claiming it wouldn't fit, leaving me to ...

Number one result for "Habitat Radius"

Was just trying to find the furniture we bought at the weekend, and all the top results are me, how strange. It's down to Habitat's website being quite bad, the whole flash interface makes it hard to index, so my pages are coming up top. ANYWAY, here...

Habitat Radius book case

No reserve! But with a starting bid of �35 surely that' the same as having a reserve of �35..? These are only 90 quid new, think I'll skip it...i10.ebayimg.com/02/i/06/ae/8a/b7_1_b.JPGI did see a nice bit of oak furniture in an ad for www.pinepine.co...

John Lewis, start saving

[John Lewis Bergerac Bookcase, we got them with wedding gift vouchers... Too many Andys, which one are you?

Lovely weekend, thanks for asking

Had a few beers on Friday night in The Coal Hole on The Strand, a few more more than the one I intended, but great to see people. Was running late (having put the popex redesign mostly live), so had to get a cab there from work. It's stupid but I fel...
