I have a serious problem with event furniture. Currently, if you have acquired glamour from an event and you dispose of it you can get another copy of it for an in-game gil charge from the journeyman salvager.
However, if you participated in an event and bought a furnishing item there is no way to get another one, except to wait an entire year for the item to come out on the mog station and to pay a pretty high fee - especially for items you might want to buy many of (for example, the cherry trees).
So, to prevent this from happening I currently just buy several of the same furnishing item in case I'll want more of it later for some reason. One I was glad I did this with was the far eastern doll display after I had seen it could be used as stairs. I've bought tons of donuts from this event as the emptied baskets look like they might be cute for putting other things into.
But then there's the problem of space. Furniture can't stack so it takes a ton of space in my inventory. Honestly, I think something needs to be done about this.
Ideally, I'd like if you could purchase furniture items from the salvager if you participated in the event and bought at least 1 copy during the event's run. At the very least though, please allow furniture to stack. :/ When "placing" one down, clearly only one from the stack would be removed. I don't get why this isn't already a thing.... If it is a consumable, then after it has been placed if some has been consumed, THEN don't allow it to stack anymore.
Anyone else have this problem? Or am I alone in not wanting to suddenly be struck with a brilliant decoration idea, only to be shot down because I'll have to spend real life money for an event item that I actually participated in and bought one of already? (And, I'm not even stingy with my money.... I buy a loooot of stuff off the mog station.. and I have no problem accepting that if you didn't participate in the event, then you'll have to buy it through the mog station).
Thoughts?
