Where can I find an Ercol sideboard?

Apart from ebay?
I keep losing them on ebay by about a fiver!
The last ones on ebay have gone for about £160 / £150 at auction but dealers seem to charge a lot more.
I missed one on Gumtree that was £100.

I want the little sidebaord with 2 bigger cupboards and one smaller cupboard, and legs.

Keep looking at ebay and Gumtree, think they are your best bets.
As you know there are dealers who sell this kind of furniture, but as you say they charge a lot more.

My mother in law has one to get rid of as she is selling up - we are in the Southampton area if you are interested I can get her details for you.

Really,86Pinkle?
Does it look like this?

If it does, I'd be very interested! I'm in S London, but if I manage to get one on ebay, I'll have to arrange collection or courier!
I'm just so hopeless at bidding in ebay!

Blu,

I come bearing bad news, my MIL is a much darker wood and has shelves on top like a dresser.

Sorry to disappoint, good luck in your search!

Blu - have you tried auction houses?

Do you still have relatives in Norfolk, there is quite a good one at Diss.

Blu · 09/11/2010 15:40

Oh, thank you so much for looking Pinkle - never mind - someone else will want that one I'm sure.

Fibo - wow, well remembered - a trip to Diss will enliven my Christmas visit! I'll get googling!

\link{http://www.twgaze.com/Diss-Auction-Rooms/Current-Catalogues\T W Gaze}, we went one Friday and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves! I think there may be another Auction house called Keys out Alysham way.

Are you using a sniper programme for eBay?

Much more efficient than ratcheting up the bidding throughout the auction - it bids automatically for you in the closing seconds of the auction.

I like www.auctionstealer.com

Blu · 14/11/2010 14:11

What does Sniper do that putting in a maximum for automatic bidding doesn't? Someone did suggest it was good - is it an iphone app? You can see I am very naive!
ANYWAY I have at last won an auction!

FS I have PM'd you Smile
