Hey, any clues where I can buy reasonable office chairs (good for your back and productivity-friendly) for a reasonable price (<250 chf) in zurich. IKEA isn't an option, as using these is an insult to the well-being of your employees... If you have 1-2 spare ones to sell/give away please let me know. danke vielmol!!
