Shopping for Furniture

With an apartment to furnish, we've been doing some serious furniture shopping. We've been to furniture malls (yes, they have entire malls just for furniture), specialty malaysian wood furniture stores and even Ikea.
Today I went with some women to a furniture warehouse.  Somebody knew somebody who had a contact that was getting this shipment of furniture from India and China.  Rode the MRT to the harbour, then took the bus and arrived in the warehouse district where we rode the freight elevator up to the 4th floor and were let into a room with a bunch of other white women looking at furniture.  Flashback to shopping for purses on Canal Street in NYC!  The furniture was beautiful and the prices incredibly low. Heres' the coffee table I bought. It's made from an old door from India!
