BMG, I sure hope it was YOU that picked up those two freshly upholstered chairs I set out front on Thursday when you said you'd be by to pick them
up!! Now, about the fee....... |
Got 'em! Love the fabric. Hope you found the payment slid under your front
door. Don't worry about the change. I'll pick it up later.

update on upholstery
We received our chairs back today after taking them to be reupholstered 10 days ago. They look nice and we are happy with the work. You can see the
chairs on the day we took them in to the shop. (He really should paint the front of his shop.) Instead of paying M$6740 ( the quote from Venesa's that
I just threw away), it cost us M$2000 for both chairs. This included materials and labor. We also took in 4 cushions off our dining chairs that ran
M$120 each. I would recommend the shop even if they don't accept coconuts.

Another success story, same shop. I bought a recliner at the segunda and took it straight there, so no "before" photo, but it was pretty hideous.
Dropped it off Monday and got it Friday. $1100 pesos and they delivered it to my house rather than trying to stuff it back into my Samurai.

Looks really nice, but you forgot to have then install the drink holders.

Office chairs
We were looking all over La Paz for some good office chairs. The ones we found either cost a fortune or were cheap Chinese junk (sometimes both!)
Finally found a couple of nice looking, high quality chairs out at one of the segundos. Paid M$700 for the pair. We worked on the wood ourselves
before taking them in to Francisco. He charged us M$1500 to reupholster them (labor & materials). Each chair took about 250 brass tacks.
For about U$100 each we now have 2 great looking comfortable office chairs.
