I bought two separate Eames replicas recently.
To my surprise, they came unassembled. Well, I knew they were cheap but the listings didn’t state that I needed to assemble them myself.
I decided to try anyway.
It looked daunting but I searched for a video on assembling an Eames chair:
It took me 2 hours for the first chair (the blue one) as I had a lot of figuring out to do. The subsequent chairs were much easier.
My sister said she paid more than $100 for her assembled chair.
I guess $14 to $18 per chair is worth it.
But the cheaper chair is noticeably smaller and had a softer seat. It bends slightly when I lean back.
This is what you call “you get what you pay for” and I have no problem with that.
