I suspect those are better than in the OP. I have yours in red and the seat is 2" rather than 1". I got 20 for $18 each at a used restaurant and office equipment storeI found these for $8 each a couple years back. Not brand new, but pretty much the same thing you're looking at.

Mine are from a real casino about two hours away from me. And a huge upgrade for my game. We used to sit on those cheap folding chair seats. My players couldn’t have been happier when they saw them.I suspect those are better than in the OP. I have yours in red and the seat is 2" rather than 1".

Personally, I wouldn’t feel great about paying $25 apiece, used, for those. Unless I immediately needed chairs, I’d keep looking. $25 should be your target price for used gassers, which are probably at least twice the chair as what you’re looking at.Sorry if this shouldn’t be its own thread, but how do stacking chairs like this look for a home game? I could get them for $25/each.
Is this a trap? Is this a great deal? Thoughts?
Thanks everyone!
Where do you look to find used gassers? Would love to lock some up.I wouldn't call that a 'good deal'. The padding on those chairs leaves a lot to be desired. As @Highli99 stated, used Gassers can be found in that same price range if you're patient. A gasser chair is gonna have 4" of seat padding and a flex back - both of which make a world of difference in a 4-8hour poker night.
The usual places - eBay, Craigslist, Facebook marketplace. You just need to be in it for the long run. I think I was looking seriously for over a year before I found what I was looking for.Where do you look to find used gassers? Would love to lock some up.

Those cleaned up nicely!I did some research here on PCF until I felt like I could identify a gasser brand chair myself, as I thought it likely that not all sellers would actually know what a “gasser” is, or why I would need to know the brand specifically.
I sporadically searched FB market for stackable banquet chairs and sifted through the trash for MONTHS until last week when I found some in driving distance, on my day off … for $5 each. I had to clean some adhesive residue off of 5 of them, but they clean up great. Gassers are excellent poker chairs (even if the colors are not your first choice like mine!)

I got a stack like those a few years ago from a school district selling off surplus. Paid more like $3/ea, not $25. Even new, that seems steep for this style of chair.Sorry if this shouldn’t be its own thread, but how do stacking chairs like this look for a home game? I could get them for $25/each.

How much do new gassers cost comparatively? These new Newport gassers look so baller. But to know how much they are you have to get a quote. Maybe that's a bad sign
