Top 3 Tips For Buying Office Furniture
The topic of office furniture is about as exciting as watching the grass grow to some people .
Generally, these people see buying office furniture as a necessary evil which requires them to search through the numerous offering of different manufacturers to finally find that perfect piece that they’ve been looking for .
While the topic of office chairs and other office furniture items might seem a little dull to the new shopper, there are plenty of ways to make it exciting .
Yes .
Exciting!
1) Let’s start with Ebay .
Guess what? Ebay is one of the largest (if not the largest) shopping experiences in the world right now (and probably into the near future) .
Ebay has grown massively during the last and it currently the largest used car dealer on the planet .
How does this relate to office furniture? Simple .
Office furniture can be bought on Ebay .
And cheaply .
I regularly buy items for 50% off on Ebay .
Maybe someone had a business that didn’t work out so well and now all their equipment is for sale on Ebay .
Their loss is your gain .
Why pay $800 for a new chair when you can buy one slightly used for $250? No brainer .
Ebay is the way to go .
2) Don’t buy more than you actually need .
Office furniture is quite versatile .
Buying a slightly larger desk can take the place of two smaller ones if you know how to arrange it properly .
In fact, buying one large used piece of office furniture might cost only ¼ as much as 2 small new pieces .
The key is to buy the best bang for the buck .
3) Look into leasing or renting office furniture .
Now this is one good tip- I’m sorry to say I can’t take credit for it myself .
This is a fantastic way to keep your cash flow in your pocket while enjoying the benefits of a brand new office .
New chairs, new desks, new everything: all for a very low up front price .
The big thing to look out for here is to make sure that you are truly getting a good deal .
To say there are conartists out there is a huge understatement .
Read the fine print carefully and make sure that what you are paying is less than buying it outright .
However, with a little bit of homework, it really isn’t that hard to get a good deal by renting or leasing .
