| ITEMS
NOT PRICED ONLINE: |
Pricing
is not shown on some brands of patio furniture. These items
are
normally special ordered according to your choices of fabrics and
paint finishes. This creates more complicated pricing because
of
cost differences
on grades of paint finish and different fabric grades as well
as on the large selection of table styles that go with the
different
seating pieces. For pricing on these items, please call or e-mail
us.
