I need to kit out a 3 piece in the 2ieme. Apart from going through the small ads on easyexpat and in FUSAC does anyone know of a shop where I can buy second hand furniture in Paris? Very grateful for any ideas. Thanks in advance, B
Well, for a start, you've got some really good free ad-newspapers in Paris. One quite famous is "Bonjour": http://www.bonjour.fr Search for "Bonnes Affaires", then "Equipement de la maison" and then "Meubles" (sorry if I sound patronising, I don't really know your fluency...) Otherwise, what you're looking for is a "Brocanteur". Have a look there: http://www.nomade.tiscali.fr/cat/mes_courses/commerces/brocanteurs/ or here: http://www.321maison.com/decoration/brocante/brocante_index.htm Or you could try les Puces de Saint-Ouen: http://www.les-puces.com/ Hope this helps. -Lam
There are shops that buy and resell all sorts of items including pieces of furniture, maybe you can check the Cash Express shops (there is one rue Beaubourg in Paris 3, but there are others). Look at the yellow pages http://www.pagesjaunes.fr/ under "dépôt vente meubles", you'll probably get a good list.
