Got an email from AK Racing today, $70 off the price of the AK Racing Premium Gaming Chairs.
Available in the colours blue, green, red and orange. Free delivery to Metro areas. If you're after another chair, get 10% off storewide by following AK Racing on Twitter for discount code.
Can confirm, I own an AK Racing chair.
Do not give into the novelty.
Theres also a 30kg difference in weight capacity. A significant difference in build quality. The officeworks product has a max use time per session. Theres definitely a few points of difference here. Might be worth some more money for some people.
Not the same video I watched when I got myn but a good comparison on the build quality compared to your $50 look-a-like

I got one of these and they are amazing IMHO :)
The fact it leans right back is comfy as well :)
Couldn't you buy something like this which would last 20 years if u wanted a premium car seat infront of a PC? http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Alfa-Romeo-Seat-Office-Chair-Leat…
Yeah, they're much nicer but it would be hard to find arm rests and install them when there are no mounting points.
Used condition too.
I wouldn't mind it though since it is more durable than these chairs, more comfortable as well.
Looks like brand new must be extremely rare to find let alone used. Looks like they are all custom made.
This is about another one that some one had made.

If you want one of these Alfa Romeo office chairs then be prepared to pay heaps for it.
After having a PU chair end up more on the floor than on the chair, went with cloth AK Racer… Just feels more durable
Yeah that happened to my last PU chair i had and they are awful for that. My current office chair is an Acclaim Link with Italian genuine leather.
I dunno about you guys, but i got this [http://www.ikea.com/aa/en/catalog/products/70196598/] and zero regrets because its only $60. But i do recommend adding a cushion inside. I can't justify more than $100 for a chair.
Good old PU fake leather that will peal off and end up all over the floor.
what would everyone recommend ?
got a hummingbird that flaked in 6 months , got a sick of switching chairs so i simply covered it up
its a shame because the chair feels comfortable enough
time for me to get a new chair tho i think ………
If you hate the flaking, one with genuine leather perhaps, but they are costly.
iv not seen any
it almost seems like im ether better off buying a slightly used car seat and mounting wheels on the bottom lol or
or i cant think of the other option
and im not sure how long somthing like that AK racing chair or the other copy cats would hold up ……………………………………………………………………..
Placebo chair.
