Leroy Merlin have some nice furniture of this type in at the moment but I'm afraid I didn't check out the prices! Have a look online.

Do Amazon sell them ? They will ship to Spain, and sometimes for free :D

Or could you buy in UK and ship ? We did this a couple of years ago - 2 'teak' folding reclining dining chairs and a 'teak' bistro set from a Tesco sale and shipped - total cost just under £100 :thumbup:

Hi Guys, thanks for the tips!!! Ikea haven't got any in stock... Checked Malaga and the range is not available...

Got a price for shipping a set from the UK (6 chairs and a round table) and they shipping company where looking from €600 just to ship.... Chrissiehope do you remember who you used?? Sounds like you got great value!!!

Anyone else come across this type of furniture on the costa at reasonable prices????

I used pharosparcels - I don't know what they charge for very big items - generally as long as one dimension is not more than 1m (give or take a few cm :wink: ) and the others somewhat less, the weight doesn't seem to matter. They charged just under £25 per package, which if I remember correctly included the insurance.

You can check the prices online if you know the rough dimensions - http://www.pharosparcel.com/

I know other forum members have used ecoparcels with great success - do a search on here for them, as there is a dodgy site with a similar name :thumbdown:

Good luck :thumbup:
