In this case chair arms (and an attempt to get my hit count up)
As you can see from the photo above, the arm of my chair is now covered in Duck Tape, due to age and sunlight the PVC has become friable and it's cracking & splitting and was scratching my arm up something fierce.
It's a very good Gregory Express chair, that I got in Tokyo from my physio. It's very comfortable and all ergonomic and shit. It still has a lot of use left in it, so I don't want to throw it out and can't afford a Herman Miller replacement at the moment.
Now Gregory are based in Australia and last time I had to get a replacement gas cylinder it cost a fortune and I haven't got the readies to justify shipping 2 new arm pads all that way.
I have trawled the Interwebs looking for a UK company that will supply just replacement arm pads, but either I'm searching with wrong terms or they just don't exist, I can't find anyone. ( You can get them from the US for £4.50 each , but £20 postage )
So dear readers, if you know of a UK company that supplies spare parts for office chairs, please let me know in the comments. I would be most grateful.
