I love these phones!!!!! I don't know why anyone would buy an iphone (or any other new gadget) until it has been out for a year. I don't want to pay premium price for the honor of working out the bugs!

One more time (sorry I'm multi tasking which should be outlawed--can't think and do more than one thing at a time and do it well!) Anyway, the ebay chair linked above is from one of the most knowledgeable midcentury sellers on Ebay. He starts everything at 9.99 and depending on the desirability of the item, the winning bid will be far above that. This is not a scam' it is a no reserve auction in which the item and the bidders determine the winning cost. A couple of weeks ago the Boston Globe did a feature on a family that was redoing their mid century home in mid century originals for far less than the cost at mid century specialty shops.
I know this is far more information than anyone wanted about your chair, but I am very passionate about making informed decisions!

p.s. You can also go to your local library and do a little research in books about mid-century furniture! The style is "hot" as you guys say, and highly dfesirable.

Ebay is a good source of research if you check out the serious and authentic dealers in whatever it is you are looking for.

Good luck, and never dump anything until you accurately know exactly what you have.

Definitely you do not want to throw this chair out. At the very least it is a classic midcentury "in the style of" and atthe best it is a classic midcentury original. Did you check for signature or manufacturer's mark underneath. If so, what does it say? Do you know what the wood is? Suggest you do an Ebay search under Antique midcentury danish chair!

You can also search reacjapan on ebay under all categories and check search title and description. Lots of sellers for kits and individual pieces som BIN and some auction.

I buy these on Ebay from the Toy Paradise Store. There are others who sell them, but I have been very happy with this Ebay store. Also some sellers have them to sell individually, but it is "cheaper" to buy by the set.

I am looking for a mid-century style dollhouse. Any thoughts? Thanks.
