Review:  This is one of the biggest texture stores in sl, they have over 40 in-house artists that sell their textures here and the store covers a whole sim. Textures for practically everything you can think of can be found in this store, custom made and photographed too. Categories range from items, fabrics, poofers and whole building sets.  I have purchased quite a few sets from here, but unfortunately I lost most of them when SL decided to eat one of my texture organisers. I still have some left though and their textures are some of the best in SL. I will definitely be going back to get the ones I lost.

I know the store is setting up a take home hud/browser so customers can shop from their home instead of going to the store. They had one of these before which I used to use and I miss it, it gave you the opportunity to just buy one texture instead of having to pay for a pack of 10-20 textures when you might only want one or two of them. I'll be glad when the new one is released.

The store claims they will pay a reward if you find someone selling their textures illegally, but I have reported a few people to the owner of TRU and never even got so much as a thank you, let alone a reward, when I IMed her asking nicely why her policy says they reward people when they don't, she wasn't exactly polite, so in future if I see somebody selling her textures, I'll just leave them to it.

Conclusion: This is definately one of the best places to go for textures, service could be better.
