Does anyone know where to find nice, good quality, dining room chairs on clearance? Maybe a clearance center somewhere? I've been looking in the Brooklyn stores, and the nice chairs are 250 and up (and mostly much more than 250). I would appreciate any ideas! Thanks!

* Try hotel resale dealers -- they buy up furniture from hotels that are redecorating or renovating and resell it at a fraction of the new cost. Sometimes you have to check every week or so, but you can get great stuff. An added bonus: a lot of hotel furniture is constructed in such a way that it's really easy to cover the seats and chair backs yourself with new fabric.
* Check used office furniture dealers. This is a little more complicated, because you have to make sure that the chairs are the right height, but you can also find great stuff, including things that can easily be re-covered to match your decor.
I know other people have had success on CraigsList and at estate sales, but I never had much luck. Either there weren't enough chairs available in a particular style or the seller was emotionally attached and wanted more than they were really worth.
Just as an aside, anyone looking for a big table should consider used office furniture dealers. They get long conference tables all the time that work perfectly: they can be used for homework during the week and look dramatic and elegant on Shabbos with a tablecloth.
