Second Chance Consignment Shop [No CC or Store Items!]

Although I love the idea of a consignment shop for my Sims, and I love how EA designed the consignment system, as usual I do not like the prebuilt EA shops that came with the game. The one in the Community Lot Bin looks like a small office building that's been abandoned for years. So, as usual, I went to the community to see what I could download. Unfortunately, I only found one consignment shop that I liked, and the zip file was corrupted.

So, I made my own.



Welcome to Second Chance Consignment, catering to all your consignment needs!

I tried to give it the cluttered "junk all over the place" look most consignment shops / thrift stores / antique shops have. That's why there's so much stuff all over the place, both inside and outside. Please harbor no illusions; your Sims will not be doing much maneuvering in this shop. But they can get to the register, and they can get to the bathrooms. I play-tested the entire shop, and everything works just fine.



However, I wanted a little bit more than that. So, I put a fenced in area in the back, where the shop puts all its useless junk. There's a few scrappy-looking items back there, two junkpiles, and even a working miner!



In my Sim's drilling, she retrieved an uncut Opal, an uncut Tanzanite, two Magic Gnomes, an uncut Flourite ... and one uncut Tiberium. Total haul (not counting the value of those gems if cut): §3,034. Please note, though, that because it's not your miner, you won't be able to pick it up and move it. It's good for one drilling, that's it. However, you can always go into "Edit Town" mode and move it to a different spot.

Hope you all enjoy this! And, yes, Tyu, I've added plenty of interior shots! XD

No CC or Store items were used to create this lot! It was hard, but I also restrained from using HEL items, as well. Please note, however, that you will need both World Adventures and Ambitions to play the lot.

Extracting from RAR, ZIP, or 7z: You will need a special program for this. For Windows, we recommend 7-Zip and for Mac OSX, we recommend Keka. Both are free and safe to use.
