Two free armchairs

David from Waikanae Beach

I have two armchairs going for free. They are a little worn and would need to be reupholstered. But nice old wood, would be quite attractive with some attention.

RRP $69 "as listed on the box"


Purchased a couple of months ago ... half a size smaller than I normally would wear.

Sales assistant told my daughter they would be fine - they aren't 🥹

I've only tried them on inside,and never worn them as you can see from the photo of the soles.

Can't be bothered driving to Tawa to exchange,so here they are for sale.
