Does anybody know of a store in KW that selves IKEA style bookshelves (the $100-$150 variety)? I need something 7ft x 3ft x 10in (roughly) with 4-5 shelves, but anything close will do. IKEA in Toronto never has in stock what I need, and the last time I was there, I caused their main inventory computer to crash. So I have given up on IKEA. Thanks, Scott

Most of the stuff is you-do-it boxes with screws, pegs, etc. that take about 20 minutes to assemble. I've been quite happy with the stuff that I've bought there. They are located on a small service road (whose name I can't remember) on the NW corner of Northfied Dr. and Hwy 86, i.e. one big block west of Conastoga Mall.

It is approximately 6ft x 3ft x 10in with 5 shelves. It goes for about $50. You'll have to put it together yourself (1 hour tops). Everything is screwed into place, which makes it easy to take apart at the end of a term. Al
