I used to buy their stuff, but once my kids start jumping on the cheap stuff you get from their it just falls apart. I actually had to go out and buy shit that would last more than a week.

I did like building the stuff, and it was nice - until I had kids.

“Like everyone else, I had become a  
slave to the IKEA nesting instinct.  
If I saw something like clever coffee  
table sin the shape of a yin and yang,  
I had to have it. I would flip through  
catalogs and wonder, “What kind of dining  
set defines me as a person?” We used to  
read pornography. Now it was the Horchow  
Collection. I had it all. Even the glass  
dishes with tiny bubbles and imperfections,  
proof they were crafted by the honest,  
simple, hard-working indigenous peoples of  
wherever.”

maybe so, but i think currency exchange rates caused him to fall to 2. it’s weird the guy who owns ikea is notoriously cheap. he’ll buy discount food, fly economy, all kindsa stuff that i sure as hell wouldn’t do if i was worth 4o some billion… if not for the lifestyle at least for the security, i mean if you’re worth billions, someone wants you dead :wtcslap:
