In simple terms there are two groups of people who normally move overseas, those who want to relocate forever and those who move for employment purposes. A new discussion has been opened on the Japan thread which covers the subject of furnishing your apartment. This may sound like a very simple choice, to ship in or to buy from new, but there is quite a bit more to it than that.
Background to the post
A gentleman is relocating to Japan with this company and is looking to rent a fully furnished apartment near Roppongi. However, there appear to be two very different trains of thought with regards to furnishing an apartment in Japan. Firstly there is the service apartment sector which effectively offers fully furnished apartments for those looking to move in straight away. Secondly there is the option of shipping over your own furniture and equipment from your homeland.
