Have a great gaming rig, a really cool desk but I have a boring and uncomfortable chair.

Not looking to spend a fortune, but Im looking for this kinda of thing :

http://www.ebay.com/itm/CIPER-OFFICE-CHAIR-BUCKET-RACING-SEAT-WHITE-BLACK-SYNTHETIC-LEATHER-GAMING-/170971874211

rather than a boring unaccessorised black office one.

I know some of you are happy with a wooden chair from the kitchen, or a piece of wood and some cinder blocks, I was too for years but I feel like I deserve a stylish chair now. Im king in my own castle, please find me a throne!

Dont really think you need it to be "COOL". you need it to be comfortable. Check AMAZON. they have a good collection of chairs and with reviews to back them up.

come to think of it, I need to chair too! :pac:

IKEA have a range of quality chairs for really good prices.

I got one, forget the name, cost me about €110 and is outragously comfortable. Bucket chairs are a bit over rated tbh.... you pay about €200 just for the design and colours...

*EDIT*

Here it is btw, 10 year guarantee

Search for office suppliers, you have the likes of Viking that supply all this kind of office equipment.

+1 to the Ikea Markus that TheDoc linked. I'm finally going to be upgrading from my cheapo Berlin chair that I got from Viking ages ago.

Way back in the days of 2003, when my undergrad final exams were approaching, my father didn't think I was taking them too seriously. He had a very comfy leather swivel chair for his office, and wagered that if I got honours, I could have the chair. I graduated with a 2.1, and my arse has had a very comfortable seat for the decade of gaming I've enjoyed ever since :pac:

Sit on a throne of filthy consoles. That's all they're good for....

SHOTS FIRED !!!!

Keep an eye on Lidl/Aldi, they do nice chairs now and again. Although they're not gaming chairs just boring old office chairs.

It's like the Game of Thrones throne...melted down from the consoles of his defeated enemies; the PC master-race overlord rules with an iron fist.

Cheers, I need a new chair too so this is v helpful. Seems everyone's on board with the Marcus. €155 though. http://www.ikea.com/ie/en/catalog/products/20103101/

Is it 3 times better than the Berlin though? http://www.vikingdirect.ie/a/pb/Berlin-Leather-Faced-Executive-Office-Chair-in-Black/pr=QD6&id=3262300/

Increased comfort and back support over the course of how many years of ownership? I would say yes.
