    Default Second hand furniture

    Good morning everyone

    Please can anyone tell me if there are any second hand furniture stores on Kefalonia? I have seen an earlier thread which recommends various stores for new furniture but we thought we might try some budget busting first!!

    Many thanks
    Liz

    Good morning acebinbabe,
    I have spoken to my friend Anna at the Byron in Argostoli and she assures me there are no used furniture stores in Kefalonia. It looks I'm afraid like you are going to have to go for new. There is an Ikea I believe, I have seen it advertised.

    Good luck

    Bill

    Hi Bill

    Thanks for letting me know, its a shame though. Oh well, I guess we will have to make do with new stuff!! We shall have to see if we can find some reasonably priced bits and pieces to start us off.

    Thanks again

    The Ikea is in Patras on the mainland NOT on Kefalonia!

    Ikea is in Athens but, they deliver. Shop on line and they dispatch, not that expensive I have been told.

    After you with the comb.

    Thank you folks
    I thought that Ikea was in Athens, but as we havent ever actually looked for it in Kefalonia, I wasnt sure. Glad to know they arent too expensive for delivery although Im not sure that they will have the type of stuff we want. Still, I'll download a catalogue and have a browse.
    Kaz, did you happen to remember which area of Argostoli you saw the used furniture shop in? It would be interesting to go and see the sort of things they have. Dont worry if you dont remember, we fly out next Tuesday so will have a mooch around and see what we can find .......quite exciting really!!
