Please clarify. Arm rest trimmed edges are clearly -Hyde of the naga- vinyl. What gives?
After looking at these picture I can't imagine using the phrase "better than new".

Is this the second posting for these items or am I losing my mind?
I think the first post established that there was some poetic license in the description.

Yes, or actually third, but here is the previous one with most comments:

You would think the nut would get the point, and move on to other sites to sell his overpriced stuff, but nooope.

Quite impressed that Yogi Berra quotes reached that far. Am I showing my age by knowing this?
i had to chuckle - as i was thinking the exact same thing ...
Since he didn’t bother to check the spelling of Connolly leather, if he meant that at all, it’s probably a ‘Con-Nelly’ product.
Connolly went in to receivership in 2002. Their quality suffered greatly and they were dropped by their key manufactures. However bad the quality it was never to this point of bad as represented on these seats. The leather quality as can be seen in ALL the photos is F quality leather at best. The quality of the work is also extremely poor, and the piping looks to have been reused as it shows signs of wear. I think you owe Jonathan Connolly an apology.
one thing you can always count on with most karnut1 for sale ads ... no i'm not talking about the ridiculous price to condition scenario ... that goes without saying as it is so expected. i am referring to the hysterical commentary due to the descriptions with high praise for grade AA crap.

I noticed the 'rebuilt' armrests had rusty staples still attached.
Probably to retain the patina. How much is a can of patina nowadays?

Not to mention "PLYABLE".
This is a pliable interpretation of the English language.
Well I'm in. It's the overwhelming combination of caps and syntax that does it for me. WHO CARES ABOUT THE PRICE!

Most of us are too polite to be this blunt.
I’d say you are still being charitable because you haven’t directly said CARNUT is either a bald faced liar and cheat or delusional.
I just hope nobody less savvy with car parts falls prey to this sort of crapola. Unfortunately,

Love the Professional staging of the sun-glasses required seats, sooo shiny. Look at #9751. Looks like a bottle of Armorall product. along with the charming broom and bucket perched on what looks like a hot tub. Price for these beauties? Imagine the cost of shipping!...Not sure of cost, but it is available
Was stuck in the queue getting popcorn for everyone. What have I missed!?
Started a comment, but decided not to throw in my 2¢...
