    $100 for a plastic chair?

      Yes the chair is free but the word Italian is worth $50 and the word designer is worth $50.

          The designers great grandfathers mother was Italian. Actually she was from Sicily but that doesn't sound as classy.

    No, just.. no. Quite apart from the fact it looks like it belongs in the lobby of a bank run by Willy Wonka I suspect that the legs will shatter under me as soon as I even think about trying to lean back on it.

    Although at least if were to end up on the floor covered in blood the remains of my chair will probably wipe down fairly easily.

    OP seriously no. I really don't understand what people see in quality with italian good. Italians are the worst manufacturers in the world for the price they charge. If you want class, I really don't get why you wouldn't look at German goods instead, for most of the time German good would probably be even cheaper, especially when competing against a $100 plastic chair like this.

    Injection molded plastic chair $99??

    Would be unlikely to buy it even at the $2 shop.
    Has the same cheap plakky look.
    $99 on sale…..really?
    Maybe it's $5.99 and a typo???

      at $99 whats the friggin difference. Would you buy it if it was one or the other?

      made in china, in downtown italy.

      reminds me of the russell peters joke.

    Yanni is Greek. Shouldn't the chair be called Giovanni or Gianni?

    Feeblely on 04/04/2011 - 00:17

    Lol! try posting this on ebay; i'm sure SOMEONE will actually buy it (maybe even for $5000 if u put it up as antique/vintage)

    Posting here?, fat chance…u've wasted what? $1 in electricity bills + 2 mins of ur life

    ——>so net profit= -$1 + wrinkles!

    P.S op i strongly suggest ebay, then ur net profit could be like +$4999

    Everyone might be missing the point that these are commercial grade chairs, ones that a cafe/restaurant owner would expect to last at least couple of years of proper punishment from customers and a hammering from the sun unlike your $10 ones from Bunnings.

    that being said $100 is not a bargain if you do quick googe around theres similar chairs to this design for the same price.

      Exactly these are COMMERCIAL GRADE chairs. I checked today, made in ITALY. No one understands the design aspects of them.

    Clearly poor people like eating chicken flavoured chips from faux wooden bowls in Italy as well. Of course, in Italy where style and sophistication abound, their shitty chairs are see through and red.

    If you have a look at http://bit.ly/f73I3q and http://bit.ly/fSly1W you see that the chair is very chic and modern!!!! It's not a cheap plastic and it is commercial grade.

      King Tightarse on 04/04/2011 - 21:13

      Nah its a shower chair.
      You keep telling yourself thats its "chic" though. Perhaps that'll take some of the sting out of the price.

      lazed on 05/04/2011 - 18:13

      It looks cheap and tacky. You paid $1000 for 10 chairs? lol.

      1st picture, the chair looks like a clear spoon as well as not sturdy
      and
      2nd picture, well…you gotta be rich to do that

    They use chairs like that in the bathroon in Japan.
    You sit on it and soap up then scoop water on yourself before jumping in the bath. You can get them at the 100Yen shop but for about 500/600 yen
    ~ $7

    Shower chair…
