Ever wondered how much does a furniture cost to keep in good condition? Almost at 60% of the procurement cost . I am speaking about outdoor furnitures here. We bought 4 patio chairs about couple of years back from outer space, koramangla, bangalore. Along with a coffee table. . . subsequently I went back and bought a bench which can be used outdoors . . . at that point I realized that the weaving of two of the chairs are falling apart. I went back to outer space and requested her to help with the re-weaving. guess what - she refused to do the chairs. but she will do the table. and if I go elsewhere to get this done - its not just going to cost a bomb but the particular weave will not be available. I guess contractually - outer space does not owe me anything . . . but good customer relations would warrant that she at least lends a hand. bottom line - I will not have to spend another equivalent amount to buy 4 out door chairs! Bangalore does not have these services available and hence . as a consumer, we will have to fend for ourselves. no point going to consumer forum.! what do I tell them? My choice of furniture requires me to buy new ones every two years!
