<$150 Gaming/office chair suggestions

Budget of $150 USD. I have already watched the GN video on chairs and know how almost all gaming chairs are the same SKU with different checkboxes marked off on the order form to China, but it still looks like the one for me because it is easier to understand than if you were to throw office chairs into the mix. So far my idea is the $110 GTRACING chair, but I want higher quality cushions. If you can link to an Amazon.com page for a similar gaming chair with all the same features as the linked GTRACING chair, but with higher quality cushions, that would be  much appreciated. 

 

I have zero need for a footrest (don't have enough square footage near my card table desk to warrant extending my legs), nor any of the extra special perks like Bluetooth audio in the cushions or ports in the chair. 

 

Also are the concerns of the elastic bands holding the lumbar support cushion significantly wearing out over time (so much that the cushions just drop when you lean forward) actually legitimate and have actual widespread complains? If so, I may ask to get one with either better elastic or a chair without the lumbar support. I can secure my own if need be. 

Fuck you scalpers, fuck you scammers, fuck all of you jerks that charge way too much to tech-illiterate people. 

Unless I say I am speaking from experience or can confirm my expertise, assume it is an educated guess.
