I think he should try 1st Dibs instead of Craigslist if he wants that kind of money.

Wow, I bought that same little cabinet that is gone now (was listed at $225!) at my Goodwill for $5. I knew it was a great deal, but wow! Here's a pic of my table: http://www.flickr.com/photos/candimandi/2956039110/in/set-72157610555316117/

Those chairs aren't even remotely like anything the Eames' designed...

bepsf - They didn't look "Eames" to me either, but I figured I just didn't know enough design history to recognize them. Does anyone know what they are?

that cabinet was part of a set of broyhill sculptra - a table, chairs, hutch, server and the cabinet was sold for $100 last week, what a bargain!
those chairs are not eames. and have been on craigslist over 6 months, so no-one else thinks they are worth 3k. I would say they are closer to a Baughman design.
