**DamageX** · 11-12-2005, 02:18 PM

All I can say is... OWNED!

**Lee** · 11-12-2005, 02:18 PM

Ikea is Swedish smeg. Totally sucks and those people in the queue should hang their heads in shame.

**Lycanthrope** · 11-12-2005, 02:19 PM

The problem is an over-abundance of stupid people.

The same shit happened here when they opened up a Krispy Kreme.

Unbelievable.

**MikeVega** · 11-12-2005, 02:59 PM

there's one over here ... no big deal ... definitely not worth a wait like that ... it's good for small cheap shit but nothing that great ..

**BlackCrayon** · 11-12-2005, 03:00 PM

the trendy fucks love that place. its fairly cheap and a lot of the stuff is junk but all in all people are lemmings, sheep, whatever.

**Sly** · 11-12-2005, 03:06 PM

When I first moved to San Diego a neighbor told me Ikea was great and everybody loved it. So I checked it out. Its a decent store, actually kind of fun, but good grief its only shopping. Its inexpensive furniture that serves its purpose, not the cure for an AIDS infested society.

**poorwebmaster** · 11-12-2005, 03:10 PM

Wood, wood and more wood.

You should check out the layout in france, once you enter, you can't exit from the entrance side, you have to fuckin' go through the whole store

Massive difference there. the KK is worth the wait for the Hot ones.

There is some cool stuff at IKEA. I have purchased some shit from there. But you have to be careful. For example, you can get a really hard, uncomfortable couch for like 500$ right? Or you can get something really nice, same look, and comfortable at copenhagen for like 700$. The couches and the seating are the only big compaints I have at IKEA. Everything is what it is.... cheap furniture that looks good.

**Quotealex** · 11-12-2005, 03:25 PM

I just love IKEA. Their stuff are easy to assemble and transport and doesn't cost an arm and a leg.

**BradShaw** · 11-12-2005, 03:26 PM

Poor people need a place to shop other than wal mart. They recently opened one up in Dallas, I checked it out and could not help but laugh.

**xNetworx** · 11-12-2005, 03:28 PM

Some of their stuff is ok. A lot of it is cheap crap tho

**the Shemp** · 11-12-2005, 03:36 PM

Don't know but those particle boards are what makes the furnitures lighter and easier to move them around

True, but not every home comes with pre-installed IKEA.

**Drake** · 11-12-2005, 04:45 PM

Weird. Btw, where do most of you guys buy decent new furniture? What are the best stores for good new furniture if you're not interested in going to used furniture stores.

**Fred Quimby** · 11-12-2005, 05:18 PM

any wood furniture you buy should be tongue and groove

lol the one in frisco? My girlfriend got knocked down by some big fat bitch over a stupid chair

**Vitasoy** · 11-13-2005, 02:53 AM

They have trendy cheap furniture.

**GoLiaT** · 11-13-2005, 03:16 AM

ikea is great for your first home
normally young people having their first home isnt loaded
so they can get new furnitures for a small buck.

if you have cash there is always an option...
but for those with small budgets its great

**v4 media** · 11-13-2005, 03:20 AM

Happened in the UK aswell,
they opened a new store in North London, and the main London ringroad ended up closing cause of the rush..

**High Quality** · 11-13-2005, 03:21 AM

I have an iKea coffee table and lights and stuff. Very quality merchandize for low low prices

**romeoboi** · 11-13-2005, 04:02 AM

IKEA has been trying to build a store in the Boston area for at least 5+ years - people drive to new haven, CT all the time to go.

My friend in boston said the local news was plugging the opening every night on TV and IKEA was offering prizes to people who waited in line.

Also think about this - there are 250k+ college students in the metro boston area. College kids, young professionals are one of IKEA's target demos... does that explain some of the madness? its a total cult brand

**Paparazzi** · 11-13-2005, 09:04 AM

Next year when I move to my new apartment I will visit IKEA
