Re: Expats what do you do with your high quality furniture pieces if you can't ship them with you?

I see. That's something I have not observed in the retail outlets anymore. I guess everything is done via online forums these days mainly.

Re: Expats what do you do with your high quality furniture pieces if you can't ship them with you?

Thank you both for your responses.

@PNGMK: Does your wife's school have some group where second hand furniture get listed? I would like to try posting there or is it specific to parents and staff of that school only? These furniture pieces are of high quality and am not keen to dispose them.

Re: Expats what do you do with your high quality furniture pieces if you can't ship them with you?

I see. Seems like channels for used furniture are really poor. Looks like I might have to depend on platforms like Facebook and Carousell after all.

I notice response on this platform for second hand furniture seems less, some posts remain from 2005. Any other suggestions?

Places to visit in Singapore

I am a Singaporean who recently got married to a foreigner. He's visiting Singapore for the first time. What places do you recommend for me to take him to? We want to do some activities as a couple. Also which museum is more worthwhile to visit? Alive or Trick Eye Museum?
