The spouses Roswitha Wolff and Hasso Haase brought an old chair to “Bares for Rares”. “No one will miss him,” Wolff is sure.
But before Horst Lichter deals with the seating, he is interested in the names of his guests. “Very interesting name, Hasso,” says the moderator. But when he hears the surname, his eyes almost pop out of his head: “Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee,” he asks in disbelief when his counterpart tells him: “Last name Haase”. It gets even better when his wife adds: “And my name is Roswitha Wolff. So Wolff and Haase.”
The couple from Ehningen bought the chair they brought along with an old house. Sven Deutschmanek explains that it is an architect’s chair from the company AMA-Plastik. The 350 model here with rollers underneath is from the 1950s. The two sellers would like 100 euros, and the expert agrees: he rates the chair at 100 to 150 euros.
In the dealership, Jan Čížek sits down on the chair to try it out and praises the suspension. “Take him directly with you,” says Julian Schmitz-Avila. He sees it on sale at 80 to 100 euros, says Čížek. Schmitz-Avila advises him to buy the chair for 70 euros.
But Walter “Waldi” Lehnertz puts a spoke in his wheel. He raises the starting bid from 30 euros directly to 80 euros. “Thanks, Jans Marge is gone,” Schmitz-Avila comments. “If you know ‘Waldi’, you no longer need enemies.”
In the end, Jan Čížek adds a fiver and buys the chair for 85 euros. Wolff and Haase are happy with that and agree to the deal. The couple want to use the money to go out to dinner together.
