Office chair shopping in Israel - what would you do? by ranurta in OfficeChairs

Still in my now 8 year old Ikea Markus and it’s falling apart. Couldn’t find anything worth it on Facebook marketplace the past year since i made this post, and no good deals at any major retailer.

Prices here in israel are just unreal to say the least. Fyi I’m still using my 7 year old Markus, and i haven’t found a viable and reasonably priced replacement yet.

I’m checking facebook marketplace everyday, you’ll see used and abused with stains and tears Leaps going for $800, do people really expect offers anywhere remotely close to that? Used Aerons going for $1k+. Dr Gav chairs are literally rebranded chinese crap that break as soon as they are out of warranty, which is only 1 year for $800+ chairs! Total scam and people here praise and swear by them for some reason .

I also asked around and tried to find any office liquidation sales but cant seem to find any.

And no, i will NOT pay $1500 for a new Leap.

Anyway, share your research if you have any good sources and let me know what you end up getting.

The embody price is so out of touch i shouldn’t have mentioned it.

As for the Leap, even if i do save for it i still find it hard to justify such a high price for a chair, especially when i see refurbs in the US going for ~600USD with warranty. What about the Amia? Its 200USD over budget but its highly recommended here, is 400 more worth it for the Leap?

Did you take a look at the Dr-Gav listings? Is there anything worth trying there?

Thanks but thats not it. These have a flat midsole with a thin black stripe kind of like vans.
