Ikea Billy bookcase 80 x 105cms (Portslade by Sea BN3)
Gifted
White Ikea Billy bookcase with two removable / adjustable shelves. Only a couple of years old and no chips or scrapes, but the back panel was fixed on wrong way round (it should be showing white) and not very well at the bottom so now slipped down slightly which affects stability ... it needs repositioning and firmly retacking. The previous tacking spots having slightly torn. And the bottom panel needs repairing from the back as it has been torn by moving roughly when full. Otherwise it is fine (!). Needs a little tlc from someone good with Ikea furniture ...
