what she said..

when I got married.. we took my grandparents sofas.. around 50 yrs old.. and yet the best no one has.. not very pretty pattern.. but very solid construction..

I thin 250 is a great price.. considering it will last him for a long long while.. (at least I wanna think it´s like an individual bed where a grown adult can sleep).. and solid oak.. A+...

maybe you can get a new matress and that´s it
