i am not sure what is your question really - the ones you names are selling knock-offs (i.e. timeless, bauhaus). another one would be sunperry.

the originals are much more expensive wink.gif

if you want even cheaper, then you will probably be out of luck or end up buying junk. another one which **might** be a source would be: http://eurekadesign.com.my/, since in rawang i havent tested/visited them yet.

I have bought a few items from moredesignasia.com. They have a small showroom in Kota Damansara. Their knock offs are very close to the real thing with reasonable qualities. Price is slightly cheaper than Timeless Design as i believe they keep their overhead cost low by focusing at online selling. 1 year warranty for manufacturer defect can give some peace of mind. Only thing is they collect 100% upfront and waiting period of about 1 month.

Nope, coz their range is too extensive. Only open weekend so better give them a call if you want to visit.

how content are you with the quality? what did you buy? care to share some real-life pics?

i have been looking at many places in the past and so far the only two convincing contestants for very close replicas with good quality have been timeless and bauhaus with timeless winning for the things i want all the time because they have samples, their staff was more informed and in most cases their final price was less than bauhaus (sometimes by a lot). i have a bad feeling with buying from pictures when it comes to replicas due to the huge differences in production quality.

the website is interesting though and the price suggests that the product could be good.

COMPONIBILI and spoon bar chair - i have check out these two originals and their products are very close. Quality wise no issue. Hence i can only vouched for their plastic products.

The reason i choose them is because they are friendlier and easier to ask for some discount compared to Timeless.

ok thanks for the info - i know those pieces. which timeless store did you go to KL or Kepong? I always found Kepong staff very friendly. I am more into the leather chairs and stuff and there quality really differs by miles. for the plastic chairs (even some of the eames) the cheaper versions are pretty good. the real differences are mostly visible when it come to the woodwork, leather and surprisingly screws wink.gif - the last eames office chair i looked at didnt even have the alluminium bar in the back fitted 100% straight. but then i am pretty picky with my copies wink.gif

i know that is why is asked. i just did my timeless shopping, bought (read: ordered) a custom version of a chair which i think will make me very happy and sat in their eames lounger. price is almost twice as much but the leather and wood are all good and if i got it right from the comparison this is almost a 100% copy with an extremely good built and very good wood work. the last time i checked a cheaper version was with sun perry if not mistaken which was significantly inferior quality but much cheaper than timeless. if i have time i will make an appointment to visit mordesign though.
