Hi everyone. Just wondering if anyone is looking to sell any furniture. I�m moving into a new flat which is unfurnished. I have some (but not much!) Looking for the lot - sofa/sofa bed, tv, vid, desk, etc.
Or does anyone know the best places to get these kinds of things on the cheap. Second hand shops or something.
Well at least I�ll have a roof over my head...

Hi mazza, welcome to the board.

I did what you are doing a few years ago to furnish my place.

Try the following...

IN MADRID CLASSIFIEDS

SPAIN ALIVE CLASSIFIEDS

They both have a for sale section.

Also, dumpster fishin' is underrated here, you can find some good stuff that perfectly insane people are throwing away Eeker

Aaaahhh, and there is always IKEA, not built to last but stylish and not too expensive.

Saludos,
jer...

Hi Marie

May have a rapid solution for you...

At the American Women's Club and the International Newcomer's Club we have classifieds for people selling off their furniture...I have noticed 3 or 4 ads that have just come out so if you give me a call we can run through the list and I will give you the contact numbers etc.

My mobile no is: 6 3069 4665

Sorry. I would love to but since the people that have advertised have done so only within the club I can only presume they would prefer not to have their details spread farther and wider...

Currently there are two 'everything must go' ads being sent around the clubs and I suspect in April I will see more of them. I will post any that I am given permission to spread the word on otherwise just keep sending me your requirements and I will pass on the details, offline, of anyone advertising.

I am making sure that the people at the clubs have heard about MultiMadrid though so they may well be posting or lurking and jump in themselves... Smiler

My wife and I went to Conforama and spent about 1300 Euros on...

1 Entertainment center
1 Sectional Sofa
1 Dinner Table
4 Chairs
1 Bedroom set
1 Coffee Table

All brand new. We thought it was a pretty good deal. It�s decent quality stuff, but nothing you would pass down from generation to generation which is what we want so we can throw stuff away once in a while to redecorate.

Hello mazza,
I can think of the Segunda Mano (second hand newspaper sold in all kiosks)they have a large section of second hand furniture and there is always people who even gives things away.

Besides, I know many people who didn�t want to spend much and didn�t care about old fashioned furniture and they went to Rastro Reto (sorry, don�t have telephone or address, but I know there are at least two places: one in the village of Fuencarral and other in Tetu�n). They even have fridges and TVs and many of the items are not so old and really a bargain. (i.e. a sofa or a fridge in good condition for 60�)

Maybe you can get the telephone number at the yellow pages. Good luck!
