If anyone can recommend some good value secondhand furniture shops in Dublin or even better in the Southeast as I'm from Wexford.. but will be traveling up to Dublin soon and would love to try get a few bit and pieces to finish my house... not having much luck on here lately :)

Any recommendations would be great. Thanks..

Hi Betty boo 69,

DoneDeal.ie is brilliant too

Janey Mack! I hadn't even noticed that myself. It's a lovely site isn't it?

Scrabble, just had some spare minutes and had a better look round craftgawker and from there I found http://www.make-it-do.com/ which is another nice site. There was one item there of interest - a woman bought the large box of detergent which didn't fit into her cupboards. So she fashioned a metal box into a new storage box for her detergent. Guess what the metal box was? An ammunition box!! Now where would I find one of those little babies?!!!

Used furniture
 

Betty Boo, have a look at Buckley's auction rooms in Sandycove, I've got a few bargains there before. The auctions are usually on Thursdays but you can leave a bid in advance.
TickTock, you just reminded me that there's a couple of ammo boxes knocking around here somewhere. I'll have a mooch and see if they're the right ones. If so I'll put them up.
Edit 25/5/11: here's the charming ammo box...

Yikes!! They'd better be empty though!!! Thanks for the offer.

charity shop

Shop
 

Due to all the traffic being diverted yesterday in dublin, I found a great shop you might like, its called the car boot store and does everything from books to furniture. Its on the quays on the left as you head for the docks. B

Hiya wise old owl, thanks for the info. Can you say which quay the shop is on, north side or south side? Wikipedia give this many quays:

"The name designations of the north roadway are (from west to east): Wolfe Tone Quay, Sarsfield Quay, Ellis Quay, Arran Quay, Inns Quay, Upper Ormond Quay, Lower Ormond Quay, Bachelors Walk, Eden Quay, Custom House Quay and North Wall Quay.

The name designations of the south roadway are (from west to east): Victoria Quay, Usher's Island, Usher's Quay, Merchant's Quay, Wood Quay, Essex Quay, Wellington Quay, Aston Quay, Burgh Quay, George's Quay, City Quay, Sir John Rogerson's Quay and Britain Quay."

Worra lorra quays!!!!

Quays
 

Forgot that bit, we walked to the end of O'Connell street towards the bridge and turned left onto the quays to head for busaras, Hope thats a bit of help but will be able to tell you the name when I get home. B

Must be Eden Quay. Think I do know the shop you mentioned. Thanks again. Might bump into JTers there after all the VIP's leave.
