Problems with finding furniture in Murmansk

And here again the topic of “assistance to small and medium business” made me cringe. Oh yeah, complaining about everything and everyone, and only BB is to blame for not helping. I would like to believe that these are isolated cases, which occur only to me ... and only I am so unlucky, but.

The point is that in small and distant Murmansk is not so easy to find those who will make furniture for reasonable money (about reasonableness a little further on). Even less those who independently on the spot engaged in the manufacture of such ... only private citizens in garages and boxes, performing work of average quality at a price not commensurably lower than that offered by larger manufacturers. There are only two options: to order a ready-made solution, to make to order to your own dimensions. Well ... let's see who is engaged in manufacturing, googling offices.

And so the search engine comes up with results. Going to websites and... oh my god... VK groups, I leave a callback request if those !!!!! don't answer a potential client's call during the daytime. Letting it go, although it's not acceptable in my opinion. A day or two or three weeks pass, I decide to compromise “love for the perfect” and order an IKEA table, which is not some moments I do not really like.

Well, a week later I get a call !!!! from an unknown number, which in 2020 is already a failure, because my phone displays the name of organizations that are on Google maps. I simply do not call back to the unknown number in case of anything. It turns out to be the office where I left the callback request. What??? It really depends on the financial support of BB that my application was “processed” for more than a week, missing a possible client. Back to the question of reasonableness. IKEA - 9900₽, the same thing to order in Murmansk - 17500₽. It's just a desk with one drawer! Pretty cool, huh?! I ordered another desk for just under 5500₽. I guess that's the reason why I'm waiting that week. ?
