Would these be those gold colored inter-locking chair that became standard furniture for any localities meetings? If so, the chairs were bought with the intent localities would be billed for the chairs. Local churches would have new chairs and Lee's investment in (Overseas Christian Stewards?) would make a profit.
In my employer's ethics training this scenario is considered a conflict of interest. The alternative would be to have purchased chairs from another vendor.
