Knock knock Hong Kong Knock Off

November 18, 2014

Its no secret that there are numerous knock off eames style lounge and ottomans out there, China are shipping containers of them every week. If you find a bargain on Craigslist its probably a rip off. On the other hand if you should happen to get one for $200 like the one below we can turn it around.
