Thread: leather sofa covered in tiny cat scratches

    Unhappy leather sofa covered in tiny cat scratches

    I acquired a beautiful leather Ikea Timsford loveseat from an acquaintance which was promptly used as a landing pad for my kitten. It's blanketed in tiny scratches.
    Regardless, it's not the right size for my livingroom and I want to sell or give it to someone else. Would anyone take it at a price, even if it's just 30 to cover what I paid to ship it? Or should I just give it away? I can't repair this due to time and expense.

    Are you trying to sell this here or look for advice? If the former, there is a Classified section, although you would probably be best off listing it on your local Craigslist / Facebook Marketplace. Include a couple of better pictures that show an example of the scratches.

    No, I don't want to sell it yet because I have no idea if anyone would be interested in buying it. I'm attaching it that shows the culprit and the nature of the scratches. No open wounds, but the entire couch is pretty much marked up like this.Click image for larger version.

    I would put it on craigslist or a local buy-sell-trade group (they have them of facebook). It looks usable even with the scratches and I'm sure someone would take it off your hands for $30.
