Does anyone have experience with ordering chairs from China? I’d like to buy some custom chairs for my main table. I’ve been shopping for months. I’ve looked into the Alibaba.com option and didn’t get good vibes. Not on the chairs, themselves. They straight up told me they couldn’t do the embroidery of my logo as is. They have a 4 color max. I’m not simplifying my logo for them. I’d rather buy chairs without any logo than one that doesn’t match my tables, chips, etc. I have church chairs for my other tables and they’re fine, but want something higher end for the “main” table.

I have gone back and forth with this company for weeks now, primarily because English isn’t the other parties first language and time zones. Every question takes days of back and forth to get resolved. I think we have finally worked out all the kinks and I’m ready to place my order. They’ve assured me all my concerns are taken care of and I finally got an invoice so I can place the order. However, there’s no link to pay with any method I’ve ever used. They want me to wire transfer money into their bank in China. Has anyone done this? Is this standard? I don’t want to blindly piss away a couple grand.

I’d welcome any input! Thanks!

I confess I skimmed. Mostly because these chairs aren’t Alibaba. They’re some other company. I was trying to avoid the whole China angle and this company claimed to be based in the UK, but I was nearly immediately redirected to the Chinese location. I’ll do more digging. Thank you!
 
Can’t beat a great set of Gasser chairs in my humble opinion.
Made to order right here in the good Ol USA.

Many times they can be found online in used/very good to new condition for under $50 per chair.
Picked mine up in Atlanta from another member when I lived back east for $25 a chair.

Was well worth the 8 hour drive one way and back from Richmond VA.
Not my favorite color per se but fortunately my ass can only tell the difference in comfort and is color blind. ;)

I’ve been looking on marketplace, furniture stores both new and used, etc for months. I’ll keep looking and maybe spread my gaze beyond 200+ miles. Thanks for the input!
