Default Ikea Australia - anyone heading there anytime soon?

I need to find out how much to, long story short, we paid £85 in UK, they're $299 here and Pickfords thought it'd be great craic to damage BOTH of our sets and we need to replace them with A LITTLE bit of financial help from Pickfords....

Jen,

These are the ones I had in the UK too! We are signing our lease tomorrow afternoon so will be heading up either tomorrow or Friday. If I see them I will drop you a line and let you know

Cool, thanku, Pickfords are only willing to offer us £200 and they cost $299 each so obviously we'll be out of pocket, but if they're on sale, BONUS! lol It's the birch veneer or summit that we have!

That's about $350 isn't it? You could get something decent for that.

You should actually watch eBay - the Malm stuff in birch is probably the most common bedroom set there is (we have it too!) and the stuff comes up pretty frequently.
