Can you get furniture from villager houses?

[Rosch]

I haven't tried it yet but... won't gifting them new furniture replace their current ones? Anyone already tried?

Tex left a Frozen Pillar inside the recycle bin as he moved out yesterday.

re: gifting villagers furniture,
I know that if you gift them clothing and they move out, (some??) of the clothing you gave them will appear in the recycle bin the next day. could be the same for furniture but I wouldn't be able to comment about that because I only ever gift clothes x.x

dang hippeux must have either really hated me or liked the clothes i gave him because he never left anything in the recycle box LOL

Marshal asked if his sugar and cream item was part of his look or something like that. I had my character say no and he gave it to me.

Were you in his house? Olaf is also smug (and I also have Marshal) So I'd like to give it a shot!

don't think we can anymore as there's no displays like it was in retail, and they don't ask us to visit their homes anymore.

I have had a few instances where I've given them something and they replaced an item, only for them to later ping me and give me the item they replaced...

... only for them to put the item they replaced back into their house. So I have no clue. I might just have bizarre luck.

I don't know if it is a coincidence or not but I gifted Beau a bed as I was tired of seeing a sleeping bag in his house, and the day after he pinged me to gift me a sleeping bag. So maybe if you gift them stuff they can replace their furniture with, they will give the replaced stuff to you ?

I think the starter villagers will always give away items from their tent days, Renée has pinged me twice to give me a sleeping bag and a portable radio, and Mac pinged me to give me a lantern, so that might just be the starter villagers with their starting equipment?

Edit: wait, Beau is a lazy villager right so he wouldn't have been one of the tent guys, so maybe it's unrelated to what I said

Not in his house, it just happened when I saw him thinking heavily outside.

Good to know. I’ll check it out and keep y’all posted!

I gifted a bed to Sprocket for the same reason, and now he has both the bed and the sleeping bag displayed in his house. I don't know what to think anymore.

My biggest wish with the villagers' furniture is to be able to catalogue items that you touch in their houses and they tell you about.

I had Zell move out too and he left his phonograph. Do you think they always leave the same item for every villager? Well, I guess we'll find out once your Zell moves!

I got his billard's table yesterday and today I found his piano bench in my bin as well!

Tbh, I could see them patching in a "special event" day where there is a village-wide yard sale or something. Would certainly be one of those things that would make sense. I believe this was in past games, so I'm sure it will return at some point. Like most things in New Horizons...it's probably just a matter of waiting (way too long). Lol.

It’d be really cool if they brought back the flea market from WW. That was probably the only event I liked in WW bc most of them were terrible, lol

Takoyaki is the best food lol
I mean La-Di-Day was...................An event lol The Flea market was so good I just hated rearranging my house to get prepared for it. I miss generally being able to hang out with your villagers in your house haha

I had Gwen in my town, and she decided to move away. This happened just yesterday. I checked the bin on the day she moved, and there was an "ice floor" in the bin, which was an item from her house. It may have been a complete coincidence...but there may be something to it. It wouldn't be too helpful if moving away was the only way to get their stuff, though (and only one random item, at that). Maybe if you gift them an item that takes up the same space as one they currently have, they might throw away the other one and place the new one where it used to be?

Yep, can confirm this happens. Keaton moved out, I found a racecar bed in the bin. That was a signature item of his house!

 

[RooftopsRevolution]

Mira moved out and some wallpaper and flooring was in the bin lol that's anticlimactic

don't understand the concept by removing that. the importance of writing letter, i'd understand because it's 2020. but being invited and villagers dropping by your house makes it more like an active neighborhood ya know.

Production time :/ they were really strapped for this. They had to delay because staff were on such a major crunch.
