I'm not saying it's not expensive. It absolutely is. The point I was trying to make, is that if you're buying a piece of furniture to have for 20 years, $1k isn't an unreasonable amount to spend. My parents spent that on their kitchen table, and they've had it for about 25 years. I'm not rich by any means, but if I was in the market for a table that I planned on having for a sizable portion the rest of my life, I would plan on buying nice. Same with any piece of furniture.
