Yeah, it was pricey. If I didn't have to work, I could have shopped around locally during the work week to try to find a bargain in person.
I knew I wanted this particular chair, because I have had the same model at work for years and it just fits me. And a fucked up knee would be more expensive than a chair.
The big factor is my wife urged me to pull the trigger.
I often buy the cheap thing, and it works just fine. But often, the cheap thing, like my old chair, winds up being a total waste of money, and I have to go out and buy the expensive thing to replace the cheap thing I wasted my money on. I wish I could identify the cheap worthless things from the cheap and good enough things when I make the purchase.
