This guy has been trying to sell this chair for over a year now.. I keep finding it and pondering, and the price seems to have risen from around £1500, to £2250... Is it me, or isn't this just a small black vinyl swivel chair?

Don't mean to hijack this...
Don't mean to hijack this thread, but this seemed an apposite time to share a fantastic and informative web site that I came across a few months ago. It's a catalogue of the furniture designs that featured in another Gerry Anderson series, Space 1999, many of them manufactured by Artemide in the 60s and 70s. Extremely well-researched, I think.
Don't be put off by the "under construction" notice, BTW.

it's on ebay. well worth a read of the desciption.
not only is this plain boring 1960s chair £3250, it doesn't even swivel properly! Brilliant.
