Hi,
Can anyone tell me if sofas are cheap in spain or more expensive than the uk!!!!

Are you hoping to cushion the blow?

Take a look here and compare against your local branch.

and here's exactly the same page for UK store:

Our experience in Valencia region was that they were very expensive, and the styles and design were very limited .... even to some extent completely crap, with nice tartan designs etc etc. However we did buy there in the end but it took months to get what we wanted

We bought a couple of sofa`s from a British place that imported them from Italy, they were a bit pricey compared to the leather ones you see advertised on the tv in UK but are far better quality.
Time you add on transport costs I think they will be cheaper here.

If you live anwhere near Yecla,(furniture city spain), you can go to Furniture Mile, it is shop/factory after shop/factory,, unlimited selection of quality. styles Prices,,,

IMV I would say, that € for £ is a good comparison but the quality tends to be better!!

i hear they are doing a ikea in malaga soon, i really want a corner either leather or material with a budget of about 1000 great british pounds but by the look of it might have to up my limit. :scared:
