are you asking about the computer and TV stands? the computer stand isn't finished, the TV stand looks like it might be some kind of cactus green. unlike what i had before there is more room on the TV stand for media and CD's/DVDs than i know what to do with.

Staples also can preassemble a chair for you, I believe, such that you can just load it in the car. What size chair are you considering? Ikea has some that require little assembly, though it's a pain to drive to NJ or Brooklyn for a chair. The Container Store also has some chairs that might work for your needs.

Ive been on a Gothic roll this week. bought a preassembled TV and computer stand from Gothic and now im considering replacing my dad's (RIP) wooden office chair(from the 70's) which is structurally 100% but weatherbeaten and the bottom sheathing coming out

Gothic (a mile from me right on the city line) says they have preassembled floor model chairs but they're not wood(fabric) for $120

hey bmwguy I was eating breakfast in Land & Sea on Broadway when a bunch of guys got into an argument. Staff told them they were calling 911, the guys left, cops came...

have you ever been to Land & Sea? this kind of thing deflates the fact that the restaurant is pretty cool and the food good (at least IMO)

I once called Staples asking them if they could do an assembly and they said they didn't offer that. however in 2000 they sent someone to my house to put together my first computer stand so i don't know...

anyway now Gothic is the place for furniture!!

i could get a task chair on clearance at target but i'd have to ask my super to put it together, but i'm so into Gothics now because of their preassembly (I realize some are floor models) and just good looks, and you don't get an impersonal big box store feel at Gothic

I have been to Land & Sea and have not experienced a scene like that, though I did see one at the Riverdale Diner when every four-letter word was thrown around and it nearly became a physical altercation. Some days...

I have never been to Gothic, but may check the selection as my nephew (9 years old) is campaigning for a new desk and an Awron or Eames Management chair.

If you absolutely must have WHEELS, put your own on.

Any home depot or the hardware stores on Canal St have a huge selection of casters and wheels.

Drill, the right bits, and some cheap bolts and you're golden.
