Scott is there any update on the chairs?

[wavelandscott (Scott)]

Yes, there is...

The shipment has arrived and is now stored in my garage...for those of you who have not unloaded a cargo container without help before I do not recommend it .

My full time job has slowed me down a bit lately with being in Tasmania and traveling in Japan next week but I hope to soon get arrangments finalized with a local retail store or two (feel free to call them and express interest )...pricing is to be finalized but should be in the ball park indicated earlier in this thread...

I will have some at SPSP in some form or fashion either in a retail display or on my own at the swap area...after that it depends on what retailers express interest and how much interest to dictate availability...if all else fails I'll end up at the markets on the weekends...

Thanks for the question and resurrecting this thread...I have been meaning to but have been busy with my "real" job what with year end audits and 2006 budgets etc. I have not made much progress with this project lately...

So hopefully soon those that are interested will be able to get one (or two or three)...my wife would like to get her garage back!

I am keen on getting one, Scot. Will you have some to sell privately, or should we go through the retail outlets you are talking to? Good on you for going to the trouble to import them - top effort!

At this time I'd say plan to buy through retail stores (I hope)...once I get their "in or out" final decision I will let everyone know who and where...

I don't have the ability really to sell to individuals and I would really prefer not to work in ones and twos if I can avoid it...

Having said that, if things don't work out as I hope, I will look at other ways to get my garage empty...after all it is pretty full right know

Cheers

I am pleased to let you all know that these chairs (Stellar Seats) are now available at Bintel in Sydney...I dropped the first stack of them off this morning...

Retail price should be AUD$177...

The comparable price in the US is between US$150 - 170...so this is a very good and competitive price indeed...thanks to the folks at Bintel for their help on this project...

I hope to have a few at SPSP as well...and eventually at another retail shop or so depending on how they go...

Thanks to all who have shown interest in these Stellar Seats!

Scott, Well done on getting these chairs in and at a great price too! I just got mine from Bintel Sydney (arrived super fast, in under 24 hours), and it looks and feels much better built and stronger than I expected. It will get a good workout alongside the 12" Dobbie over the long weekend.

Thanks!

I hope you get a lot of good use out of what I find to be a good observing tool.

I looked for a long time to find something that would hold a guy my size (approximately 125 kg maybe a bit more after the recent Easter Bilby visit)...and keep me feeling comfortable...these chairs are the best I could find...enjoy!
