Show HN: And now for something furniture and movie related

Submitter here.

Over the last number of months me and a friend have built a website (www.seenonset.com) for finding and buying furniture and decor that's found on the set of movies and TV shows. I have a technical background and he has an interiors background.

The website isn't particularly interesting from a technical view point - it's a standard ASP.NET MVC web application hosted on Azure. But on the business side it's a bit more interesting; we're trying to provide a new approach to buying household items that ties in with peoples connection with media. We think it's an especially good time for something like this since online sales for furniture is growing and there is a real lack of brand awareness when it comes to furniture which we want to change.

Anyways, I know the furniture and interiors market isn't a typical interest of HN but I was hoping for the usual critiquing in terms of the business model (we rely on affiliate sales for the moment) and website design, along with any other thoughts you'd care to share. At this point I might just note that the site isn't mobile optimized yet.

Thanks for having a look.

I really like the idea. I hope you are a success. The prices are too high for my cheap tastes, but that's probably as it should be for these items.

One feature which might be nice to have would be a place for users to request an item or show (without having to think of contacting you through email). I know that the way things work, you probably are showing those items and shows you already have contacts with. However, taking requests might show you where new demand might be, so you know which shows to start making new contacts with.

Kudos thats a pretty smart affiliate idea.
