In 2008 I furnished (no appliances) a 1K for less than 90,000 yen with stuff from Ikea (that is still around).
You can't just compare price. If you're paying for really high quality furniture it's going to cost more. However, the stuff I saw at Otsuka was way too expensive for what it was. Admittedly that was just the showroom stuff but 180,000 yen for one of these in pastel colors seemed a bit over the top.
Maybe it was a WWE combat chair ?
Or sat on by an AKB48 member?
