Furniture showrooms

So... it's easy enough to find a specific type of furniture. But who has a tower that's a showroom of all types of furniture?

I'm trying to decide how to design my house, but there's just too many options and it's hard to decide without seeing things in "real Ur." Supposedly there was a thread that linked to people's showroom towers before, but nobody can remember its title. So. Help a glitch out?

  • Great idea, but I would think it would be pretty expensive to have all the options, as most items are credits only.

  • What's not working for you if you use the Encyclopedia?  It shows all the upgrades.

    For example here's the encyclopedia entry for armchairs.

  • She wants to see them in-game, so she can walk up to them and feel the fabric, stand on the ledges, test out the springs, evaluate their relative sizes, etc.

  • Is there a list of people who sell upgraded furniture in their towers? The auctions seem to be pretty quiet lately.

  • Players who aren't selling but would like to show off their design skills could post their tower rooms too. Insirpration is alot harder to come by than furniture upgrades. I have seen a few towers around UR that have really used the available free designs along with specific upgrades  to good effect with cleverness or humor. Let's start posting links to them when we run across them.

  • You got it, Scarlett. :P There's something different about seeing things in-game than seeing them in the Encyclopedia, as silly as it sounds.

  • I have started doing a furniture showroom in my tower. Trying to do one "setting" until the items are sold. Unfortunately (or not, depending on your view) the items sell quickly and the showroom tends to be bare. I may start doing a showroom setting a week and leave the items unpriced so that folks can view them and/or order pieces...

  • You're welcome to visit my 8 floor tower, Miss Bunburyist. Nothing is for sale, but I have decorated each floor differently.

  • I would like to do a showroom of man-cave furniture but I don't understand why furniture does not show up on Glitchmarket and Glitchremote like everything else?

    I don't know how to price furniture! I like making it but I don't understand how to sell it. I need to see what everybody else is doing. Am I looking in the wrong places? I have a lot of good ideas but I don't like working in a vacuum.

    Thank you to everyone who showed their tower. I love looking at other people's towers and I always try to buy at least one thing.

  • Ditto on Arcadia's question. I would really like to buy furniture from people, but none ever shows up on glitch remote, and other than randomly walking through people's towers I don't know where to find it :(

  • @ Mikella and Arcadia - if you have the ability to use the trade channel it is an excellent place to inquire about furniture for sale in towers (or homes for that matter). Until GlitchRemote offers the ability to search for furniture in towers, the Trade Channel may be your best resource :)

  • I've created the group Tower Furniture Showrooms. Sellers can post there and be added to the list of furniture sellers. Buyers can look at the group to see the list of sellers (which is empty at this moment, as it's brand new.

  • Everyone:

    Tower furniture doesn't show up in Glitchmarket and Glitchremote because TS doesn't make that information available.
