Title: Bycast Leather
Post by: hbionic on February 17, 2006, 03:33:54 PM
Ok....I'm seriously thinking about buying a leather couch set for $999.99. It is a three seater and a two seater. My question is...does anyone have any experience buying 'bycast leather' furniture and/or things. I'm just sketchy about shtein I don't know about...but they're comfortable and will look perfect in the living room.

Anybody?

Gay.  Gay, gay, gay.

Save the money.  Soon as you spend it on stupid pleather furniture, it's gone.  Spending money is for the gays.

It's called furnishing your home and not using credit. I thought I was doing a good thing...but since you are from the internet...I must do as you say.

Anyways....is it wack to have 'bycast' leather is the question. But the couches look pretty dope....

Good to avoid credit, bad to spend money.  Get yourself some nice cheap used furniture from Salvation Army for 1/4 the price and move on, with money in the bank.

They're gonna look like shtein after your first gay-ass "homo bought a pleather couch" party, anyway.

A grand for two couches isn't bad.  Do some research to see if they'll hold up, and if you like them go for it.

No matter what you do, definitely consult people on a football message board first. Definitely.

They look good...but the whole 'pleather' thing....just makes me iffy. So...I'm assuming that leather couches in general are zesty? They get messed up easily? What are people jumping up and down on these things?

Also...if I keep money in the bank...its just going to go towards the mortgage payment...in an unfurnished house....I did try the salvation army...but....there was nothing I could see myself buying (other than the strobe light :paranoid)....but I scour through craigslist and see what I can...its tough because I've never bought furniture before....I just don't want this shtein to fall apart on me  three months down the line.

You seem to care way too much about your home furnishings.

If you spend less than $1500 on two couches, it's crap.  No matter what.  Mo $$$ = Mo quality

It's a small house...but I don't want it looking like some hosh posh, I went to 10 different yard sales to get 10 different types of furniture. I want to pimp it out a little....but at the same time...watching the dinero. I don't believe in spending too much money on furnitre....especially since I'll be using the computer and the bed the most....so...it kind of makes sense...but I haven't exhausted all of my options yet. But I want to have a certain style and look to the place.

Anyways...why am I explaining myself. Probably because I care...too much.  :'(

Also, why go for the bicast leather when you could spend a few more dollars and get the totally gaycast leather you crave?

Yeah, it's really simple and it looks great.  It can be done with one person but it's a little easier if you have 2 people just because the extra person can help when you're locking the planks together. 

I got mine at home depot for about $45/box.  I saw some at sam's club for about half that but I didn't really care for the color of it.  The area I did covered about 150-160 sqft.  Got it done in a day.

i got mine at Costco for 19.99 a box, on sale from 24.99.  everyone i talk to says it's easy, but i'm mildly retarded, so it should be interesting.
