Hi...I have just found the chair of my dreams...(link included) but how to convince my parents that we need 1?

Question

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=300239549509&ssPageName=STRK:MEWA:IT&ih=020

I would like in in orange with a brown interior as we have just purchase chocolate brown sofas for the living room which is painted white with a big black LCD tv (42") and wooden floors (light oak) but not very modernly furnished in terms of it isnt futuristic.

It would be really good as we can save space...im not sure that those are the right colours for it though so would appreciate suggestions on:

- How to convince the parents.

- What colours to get it in considering the decor in the living room.

Thanks, x

Answer 1

tell them it's retro...and cool...

Answer 2

try brown and black or brown and white or black and white, or any one color if it comes with it.

maybe tell your parents why it is the chair of your dreams and try to negotiate with them. if you get an allowance then you can sacrafice half of it to help pay for this chair or do extra work around the house to pay off for it or depending on how old you are and if your life can hold it, get a job and pay for it yourself ^_^

Answer 3

It looks like a toilet!

It closes like a toilet!

Is it a toilet?

Answer 4

Maybe they aren't aiming for a futuristic look? It looks very practical for the garden, as you can close it if it rains.

Answer 5

Most disgusting seat I have ever seen,

Answer 6

RIP OFF. You can buy the exact same thing at walmart for 80 USD.

Answer 7

ewww its ugly

Answer 8

dont buy it

Answer 9

I think it is fab, couldn't you have it in your bedroom though and stop the parents having to give you the okay. they may hate it, but will tolerate it in your room.

Answer 10

um ok....cute, maybe. looks like you could roll around in it. but it's seriously not worth the money!

Answer 11

I would suggest that the only way they will let you have this garden chair is to offer to pay for it yourself..

of course they will also insist that it should remain in the garden .. preferably buried!

Answer 12

try rolling on the floor

Answer 13

i dont like it

Answer 14

No way are you going to be able to convince your parents to cough up a load of money for a chair that looks like a toilet seat.

Answer 15

All you need to do is say you want it for an early Birthday or Christmas present and you wont ask for anything else. By the time Birthday/Christmas comes round parents usually have forgotten about the fact you already got your present and don't want to see you without a present anyway.

Answer 16

"Ahh, back pain, better get expensive chiropractic, or that chair i saw...."

get the hint

Answer 17

Dude...this chair belongs back exactly where it came from...THE 60'S.

was cool maybe when Clockwork Orange came out but seriously...just...no....
