Title: Buyable Bookcases
Post by: gautie53 on July 15, 2007, 01:46:30 am
As I am fairly new here, and hope I am posting in the right place with my question.  Is there a way to buy bookcases in OFB.  The problem seems that customers can only purchases books from the bookshelves and not the whole bookcase.  Please help!  Thanks in  advance

Am I understanding correctly?  You want the customer on a community or home business to be able to buy the whole bookcase as in a piece of furniture?

I have never tried this and am not at home to experiment but I know that you can set prices on many things to put them up for sale.  You may be able to set a price on the bookcase itself.  Worth a try anyway.  Maybe someone else on the forum has had a furniture store where they have done this.

You are correct tylersada.  I want the sim to buy the complete bookcase.  I have put the bookcase up for sale, put a cheap price on it, but the customers take a book out and purchase the book only.  I even took a playable sim there myself to purchase it, and the option of 3 kinds of bookd came up for her to choose to purchase.  Something like the choices that come up with games and magazines.  I am beginning to think that perhaps the game does not allow for the purchase of the bookcase as a piece of furniture.

Sorry I had been away and am now just beginning to check my subscribed threads.  I will have to try this when i set my next business up.  That is really strange.  I thought anything in the game could be purchased.

I am uploading a bookstore this evening that was a result of this thread.  I built the bookstore and then tried to put the bookshelfs up for sale.  shows how smart I am.  Can't do it (at least not that I have found).  I also found several other things that cannot be sold.  Any way I thought I would share the book store because I did like that.
