can someone please take a lookie at this http://www.ebay.co.uk...e&hash=item3cbba2de2f and tell me if it's possible to stain it a darker shade? it looks like it has some kind of finish to it.

would it need sanding, etc? any advice?

I'm a lazy cow, but would be happy to slap on some stain stuff :o)

It looks like it's been sealed and/or varnished. It won't take a stain without sanding back to the wood.

Not without work Sara. It's probably wax or poly finish on it.

lol.. local?

to me, I mean.
That looks like chipboard/mdf/pine with veneer or plastic finish. If veneer you could probably re-stain it, if plastic you have very few options.
