Q: Recently, I watched an episode of a new tv show on CBS. In the office of the main characters, they had a couple of rolling carts (cabinets, shelves) at the end of the desk that would be very useful in my graphic design and art business. I was wondering if anyone had any idea where I could find them?

Joe Colombo Boby Cart. Google it and you can find them in all kinds of colors and sizes.
I am now looking forward to see all the comments where people give the same answer! :-) That should be the end of this!
what's the show called?
@madebyida - The show is called Partners.
@Pi: thank you! :)
Who knew that the reason I couldn't find them was because they were vintage? LOL found some on etsy today, a bit pricey for storage though. Who knew they had even already covered this item on APT Therapy before..

Thanks for the help.
I used those for years as an architect. They really are not worth the cost. I think they were like $200 new. They only have 3 casters so they are prone to tipping. And the side bins were notorious for collecting everything gross. Look for tabouret carts for alternatives.
I believe it's still in production and expensive for a hunk of plastic, but you can get a vintage one for a fairly decent price on ebay from time to time...although they're usually pretty scratched up.
My friend left town in a hurry and I ended up with her old cart just like the one in the AT post. Who knew it was so valuable?!
To echo Sharon's comment, I used a black Boby like the one on the right above for years as a tabouret. Although it looked good, it wasn't nearly as functional as it should have been. And yeah, it was expensive.
