Free: desk never used (Chicago, IL 60613) Image is of desk in a few parts ready to be offered and put back together very easily. Almost all the parts were already put together. I could easily explain to whoever picks this up exactly how to put these four main parts back together. I am not the typical fixer guy at all and yet I managed to build it originally and take it apart. I promise you this will be an easy put-back-together exercise. I removed the 5 sliding drawers (which only have to be slid back in) and the piece between the two pedestals (the left and right column of drawers) (which only needs four screws to be put back). The top has eight Cam screws emerging - you just slide them back into the holes in the pedestals and cam-screw them tight again (using an ordinary Phillips screwdriver). This is really a twenty minute or less job. This desk was purchased eight years ago for about four hundred bucks but was never used. It just stood there looking pretty. I realized if I never used it I had might as well pass it on. So here it is. You'll obviously need a small truck or SUV with room to pick this up. I would bring a few materials like blankets, sheets, or drop cloths. I have some drop cloths I'll bring along just in case - so you can protect the parts better while loading and unloading. I have two dollies I am using to wheel the pedestals down. You can keep those to make your final move of the items back to your home/office, easy.
