You'd be amazed at the number of people who cannot visualize what furniture will look like in a room. I've spent over $600 on accessories but I simply don't have the financial wherewithal to spend thousands on "real" furniture and I certainly don't have a warehouse in which to store it when it's not in use. Cardboard furniture just might be the answer for me. You don't need to be able to use it, just LOOK at it.

As a real estate investor, it would serve the purpose that investors need when selling a property and not have to really worry about a break-in and things getting stolen. INGENIOUS !!!!

I almost sat on one of those fake beds. It was a cot like contraption not meant to hold any more weight than the elegant bed set it boasted. I thought it looked fake but wasn't sure so checked before I put any weight on the "bed". I bet the whole thing collapsed and folded like a lawn chair. Funny. I almost sat on one of those fake beds.

It's still cheaper to buy real furniture from goodwill, people. And you can actually sit on it. Ew.

Maybe your friend from HS helped create cardboard mullets for that show? I remember seeing a lot of fake people in the audience during American Gladiators.
