This is going way off topic, but I'll chime in anyway. lol
Doesn't IKEA have a "clearance" or "scratch-n-dent" type of outlet store?
The one in LA had such a store where you could buy items that were displayed or imperfect or had some kind of damage. I remember it from the early '90s, because I went with a friend to pick up her Ikea wall unit shelves for her VHS collection.

As interesting as those look, they're just bland without the name plate. It's angled on the front so the obviously intended for their to be a plate there. They should sell a kit with downloadable templates and precut gold metallic full sheet labels that people can print off their own custom name plates.

I know that... we don't have an IKEA in our area. The closes thing to something like that is either Kmart or BigLots!.... I was just speaking for those in the west coast areas where may IKEA stores are located. zozo-mag

I have an IKEA nearby, and need to pick up some more Detolfs. I just don't have any room to put them right now! Too many unopened moving boxes are still taking up my entire collection room... }D

Just got a Stage Act in Little Tokyo when I was in LA last week. I wasn't going to get one because I don't have room for my SOCs in my two Ikea shelves anymore But I already have everything at the store. I had an amazing work experience in SOCal and I just felt like rewarding myself I am glad that I purchased one. It is sure making my GX-53 look good. I am not a big fan of that SOC robot... However, the stand is sure making me like Daitarn 3 more.

IMO, Mechanical Chain Bases are a much cheaper and better alternative than the ACT stages. A local supplier here sells it at Php200, depending on the stage variant. I use it now to display my small SOC collection.
