Good Furniture Places?
 
Anyone knows some good places to buy furniture? I'm looking for a display case/bookshelf to hold my car collection/awards/various things I've collected over the years.

Something around 80" or 204 cm in length would be ideal.

Went to IKEA, but the quality wasn't that great. The back of their BILLY bookcases are kind of flimsy, although the glass doors are a really nice touch.

Price is not too much of an issue, I don't mind paying more for something well-constructed.

Thank you very much.

Sorry man, but when it comes to display cases, Ikea is WAY cheaper than everywhere else. You'd be looking at 2 to 3x the price. But depending on your style and what you can find on sale, Sears is a surprisingly good place to look.

Possibly Mobler?

I think they are talking about the place south east of ikea.

Depends what your budget is...

There's inspiration and once a tree for your high-mid level quality/price furniture store
Then there's mobler and home delight for your midish level

Then there's the insanely priced yaletown furniture stores.

irrc once a tree does do customized work but you would be looking around 1000 for that type of option

Define "Good"

Good as in price? Good as in construction? Good as in materials? Good as in environment? Good as in flexibility/ size?

The above attributes don't necessarily intersect in a product / place.

If you want top notch construction and sustainable materials.. check out places like The Joint.. they will even do custom for you.

my buddy went on craigslist and got a good deal from a shop that was getting rid of their display cases.

FYI Inspiration is having a warehouse sale at their store right now.
