Looking to buy a pair of all black Seconda Chairs designed by Mario Botta for Alias. The owner purchased them about 15 years ago and the chairs are still in production. Does anyone know what they are worth approximately?

worth
I had seen one online ages ago for 500 euros I think, back when euros weren't worth as much as they are now! I've had 6 seconda chairs, I sold them for WAY less then that. But thats here in MN, what the market will bear....

Would 400-500 CDN dollars...
Would 400-500 CDN dollars each seem reasonable in a major city? If you don't mind me asking how much did you sell yours for?

I think..
If I remember, I sold a set of 4 for around 650 USD & the set of two... for around 200 USD a piece probably a little less - but he also had to pay probably another 100 - 150 to ship two. I think the set of four were shipped out of state too... so you have to take that into consideration with the price.. The chairs were in very good condition, just some wear & scratches to the metal. The US dollar was stronger when I sold these, a couple years ago. I think 400 - 500 seems reasonable in a big city. They are pretty rare so it might take a while to find more at a better price, and I feel the people who bought mine got a good deal.... For the time being I wouldn't imagine finding other ones for cheaper unless they pop up on eBay anytime soon.
If I find any I'll let you know 😉 I just recently found & sold a Botta Quinta chair..... but I liked the Secondas better.
