Dropped $180 on a salon chair off Facebook Marketplace and it's a total disaster

I saw this "vintage" hydraulic chair listed for cheap and thought I scored a deal. Got it home, the pump leaks oil all over my floor after 2 hours of use. The base is wobbly too, I almost dumped a client onto the floor last Thursday. Anyone else had luck finding decent used chairs without getting burned?

$180 for a chair that dumps clients on the floor sounds about right.

Used to be all about cheap options myself until I tried to stand up from a $50 special and it just slid right out from under me. A broken hip is way MORE expensive than a decent chair when you actually think about it. Sometimes paying a little more upfront saves you from paying a LOT more later.
