Office desk

[Zico]

Looking to get a new desk for my room but they are pretty expensive for a couple of bits of wood and metal.

I have been looking at the following desks at Staples UK (http://www.staples.co.uk):
https://www.staples.co.uk/furniture/furniture-collections/office-collections/rio-beech-collection/rio-left-hand-ergo-desk-steel-leg
Rio Left Hand Ergo Desk (£229.99+vat - Item Number: 382837)

Maestro Plus Ergo Cantilever Desk Left Hand (£259.99+vat - Item Number: 406596)

Does anybody here know of similar desks at a better price?

We just bought one of these:

(Actually I lie, we bought a right handed white one).

Seems plenty good enough to me. Also bought these bits for keeping cables tidy:

Well, it is cheaper.

Nice but still just as expensive for a desk (especially if you choose the T bar over the V).

Going to speak with a local carpenter and see what we can get priced up in comparison to the Ikea/Staples offering.

This is my desk and has been for over 3 years now. It is brilliant! Solid wood.

Assuming the desks in my garage are still in fit state, I'll be getting rid of two 4ft desks fairly soon (one cheap MFI, the other decent ex-office T-bar). Both well worn but good nick so £10 each. Only bother is they'll be collect only.

To replace them, I got two matching 4ft and a 6ft table-style desk from an office clear-out.

Thanks for the offer but it's a little too far from Canterbury :).

My existing desk is from either an office clear-out/auction (~£10 when we bought it many years ago) and I've also got a cheap smaller desk from Argos along side it.
