Thread: Is this real leather? Worth $1200 CDN?

  1. #1

    Default Is this real leather? Worth $1200 CDN?

    All I have right now are 2 pictures of the reclining sofa and love seat, unfortunately it's a 2 hour drive with a trailer away so I want to get as much information on it as I can before actually going.

    -The seller claims they paid $6,000 Canadian for the 2 piece, and that it's roughly 5 years old.
    -They claim its real leather on the seating and arms, bonded leather on the sides and back.

    Is this worth $1200 Canadian? That's what they were asking, I got them down to $900 but they said that would be the lowest they'd go. Do you really think it was 6,000 new?

    Can anyone spot the make and model?

    Will they not tell you the maker? From the way the leather is sewn on the seats with those small patches on the cushions sewn together could indicate it is a cheaper brand because smaller pieces of leather are cheaper than bigger ones so they can take a bunch of offcuts or whatever and use those scraps to sew together to make cushion covers like this. That plus that it has fake leather on the sides means it is not from a quality maker. I don't know Canadian prices, but I would be surprised if it was truly $6k.

    If they won't tell you the brand personally I would walk away, I won't buy something from someone like that. I wouldn't pay $900 for them either, but again I don't know Canadian prices.

    1200 canadian is around 850 US. At 900 it's 650ish.

    Max I would pay is like $450 us for these. It looks like lazy boy stuff. Hard pass.
