Of course I understand...
Of course I understand variance, you buffoon. However, we only have 1 data point. The sample of n=1 with a sample mean of $3300. What is the best GUESS for the population mean for a refurb. Eames? The correct answer is $3300, bozo. The sample mean. The actual population mean will be some standard deviation away from $3000, but with n=1, we have a large confidence interval? Once we have more data points, we adjust it. But, as of 8/15/13, the correct answer for my original question is $3300.

Why are you still talking about that?
We've moved on to a discussion of shoes, belts, and watches. Try to keep up.

Your example is slop, but your point is noted. Please post snappies of when your new chair arrives. I'm just curious.

In fact, it appears that...
In fact, it appears that replacing the covers might actually INCREASE resale value (which is probably why the seller did just that)
Here is another vintage 60s Eames with ratty original covers. Sale price $790. One big variable besides overall condition of the rest of the chair is that the armrests were also repaired, so that is impacting price as well.

But, the question now arises, does replacing covers reduce the value, or is that just the preference of a handful of fetishist on a design forum? More data is required.

kebulb...
I could post numerous examples of eBay listings that sold well above or below the going market price.
So now what?
P.S. LED watches are so college.

Whether beach bunny or queer...
Whether beach bunny or queer is no business of mine. Fabulous trousers simply are. And they require a complementary chemise, natch.

No chemise clads my flabby skeleton.
and I'm not sure about the word "queer".
I must ponder. I must smoke.
Best,
