| Pixr pilot Thanks for pointing out that difference about the recessed versus the flush bottom. I wonder which one is more common. | |||||

| shop at another location jdip, Let the buyer tell that same story at a retail location and collect airline points from them. See how much eBay is going to back you up on the buyers obligation to a contactual agreement. There is a big difference between "needing" the money and "wanting" the money. You are in charge not the buyer. I would suggest that you cancel the sale, block the buyer, and try again in the near future. | |||||

| ... and that base and faking a finish and whatnot. I think they must get tens of thousands of complaints like this every day, maybe way more than that. They're just not going to follow up until actual winning bidders start filing official complaints about fraud and so far that hasn't happened in any significant numbers as far as we know. Not that I think Ebay is perfect and not that I think what Modernesia is doing isn't despicable. The one thing I've found that gets very swift action are auctions of fake items involving manufacturers in ebay's VERO program. ... | |||||
| Comfort? | 1 Relevance | 15 years ago | TinyArmada | General discussion | |
| ... I'm female, only 5'7 and slight of frame so maybe that makes a difference. My partner, who also posts on this acct., is a guy, bigger than me, and he thinks their comfortable as well. Ah well. I also think Eames arm and side shell chairs are very comfy. I've used a arm shell with a tilt base for the past 6 years in my office and love it. But I've also heard people complain the fiberglass chairs are uncomfortable. Probably has a lot to do with body type and preferences. | |||||
| Well, perhaps | 1 Relevance | 15 years ago | TinyArmada | General discussion | |
| Well, perhaps I would say when you are spending thousands, it is your job to know the precise difference between the real thing. And besides, we are not talking about a replica - we are talking about a bad copy that is easily identified as not being a 670. If you are going to spend money on serious pieces, then you should know what you are shopping for. I am not attacking the buyer in this case, I am just saying that why shop for an eames for the sake of eames if you clearly did not know what you are buying? This is the difference between a collector and a p ... | |||||
| Not your fault. | 1 Relevance | 15 years ago | fastfwd | General discussion | |
| Not your fault. It's not your job to know the difference between an Eames 670 and a replica. It IS the dealer's job, though, and anyone in the modern-furniture business who could attribute such an obvious replica to Eames is either a crook or an idiot. | |||||
| Nope, no stitching | 1 Relevance | 15 years ago | Poach | General discussion | |
| Nope, no stitching Herman Miller's leather and vinyl may look pretty similar when new. You should still be able to tell the difference by the grain (more irregular on leather) and touch (leather feels warmer). Once they have a few years on them, it's a much easier, since they age differently. Leather will develop natural creases and shine where you sit. I also have a leather Aluminum Group chair from the 90s, and there's not question about the material when you see it. | |||||
| Dansk History | 1 Relevance | 15 years ago | pirx pilot | General discussion | |
| Dansk History I seem to remember an article in Modernism a while back. Not sure how detailed the information is. I'll have to dig it up....right after I learn how to post pictures on this site. I have a copy of Danish Pepper by Mark Perlson, but like its title says, it is mainly about the pepper mills. Diors. Interesting to see other white liner versions with what I assume must be one of the oldest stamps. Mine also is a two peg version. But did you notice one difference? Mine has a flush bottom while your bucket has a recessed one. | |||||

| speak for yourself lind2020, The industry you mention, changed manufacturing directions (from planes to cars), admitted their complicity, and made reparations. A large difference exists between taking responsibility and expressing denial while evading the issue. If I hate someone or something they win and I lose. Please speak for yourself when you write and do your best to avoid ignorance. Read more and speak (write) less. | |||||
| I'm seeing | 1 Relevance | 15 years ago | SDR | General discussion | |
| I'm seeing only the second photo, above -- the first is not appearing for me. In the second photo, I see that the spine is wider (not thicker); the seat difference is less clear, but could be established by measurement. My question had to do with your earlier photo of the chairs back to back, in side view. I'm not sure what differences are visible there. If you have both chairs in your possession, measurements could be taken to record the differences between the old and the new chair. I am interested to know if you find the changes in spine *thickness* t ... | |||||

| Interesting comment Lunch Box. Nonetheless, have you folks noticed that the early Evans model is thinner in comparison to the 1950's model. Take a look at the images of the Evans Chair on the left in comparison to the 1950 chair. There is a considerable difference in the neck region of the chair. Additionally, in the second caption notice the difference between the two in relation to their profile. That being said is this a normal occurence between the two production series? Lastly, the wife has weighed in on this discussion and informed me that I can on ... | |||||

| ... good at keeping the whole length from getting tangled so that you can work with a little bit longer length than they recommend and thus have fewer tacked ends underneath. I think I had three in all. Maybe two. When I first started out on these chairs, I spent a LOT of time untangling cord. Like, more time untangling than weaving. You can start at the front or the back of the chair. I like to start at the back because it's tough to fit the last few rows in and it's just easier not to be reaching across the seat to do it. That's all. Otherwise it doesn' ... | |||||

| ... incandescent) only draws around 30 watts. That's a 70% energy savings. No question, the CFL costs less to buy and operate. Using the numbers from my lightbulb message above, it would cost $144 to run a series of 100W incandescents for 8000 hours, but it would only cost $43.20 to run a 30W CFL for that time. It's a significant difference, and it gets even better if you have air conditioning and a lot of high-power lights that you leave on for long periods: CFLs produce significantly less heat than incandescents, so they reduce the load on your AC system a ... | |||||
