pxlchk1 .......you aren't going to find coveted MC pieces in a little haunt unless you're very lucky. Maybe at an estate sale. Like Hans Wegner's 'the chair', certain pieces and designers will alwa...

Finn Juhl or Hans Wegner stuff fetches a goo price these days.....the dealers ALWAYS ask for more. Saw a Kofod Larsen credenza on e-bay go at a bit more than $2000, and the dealers were asking $8-1...
