Maximum

Introduction
Some Stores and Decorations have a maximum number of time that these can be bought.

This page provides two tables with an overview of the maximum number of Stores and Decorations, together with a short explanation of the fact that sometimes one can see Tiny Villages with more than this number.

What other elements have a maximum number in Tiny Village
Next to the Stores and Decorations listed there is also a maximum of
 * 1 Magic Rock
 * 1 Dino Den
 * 1 Market
 * 1 Post Office
 * 5 Placid Plain habitats (1 for every coin capacity)

Why do some players have more than the maximum number in their Tiny Village
The maximum number of Stores and Decorations has to be set by TinyCo. The number can change (see for example the Crystal Bank which has been introduced twice, the second time with an increase limit from 5 to 10).





The maximum number of some Stores and Decorations was only set after some time. Therefore when one visits other players in the community there are those that have a higher number than the current maximum.

When a Stores or Decorations are obtained above the maximum number before a maximum is set these Stores or Decorations will remain in the village. However no more of that Store or Decoration can be bought in addition.

Why do Stores and Decorations disappear from the Shop
When the maximum number one can include in Tiny Village has been obtained the Store or Decoration will automatically disappear from the list of choices for purchase. No warning or other indication will be given.

In the game the maximum number one can obtain is not indicated, so check the table below to see whether when a Store or Decoration is no longer available the maximum is reached.

Please also note that some Stores are Limited Stores and are only available during a short period of time (in particular the Limited Stores associated with Challenges). The same applies for some Decorations that can only be bought during a limited period of time.

One can also notice that the limit has been reached when while building the Store or Decoration multiple times no new Store or Decoration appears to build.

Why are they limited?
Some stores and decorations are limited because of the profits that they give. For example, The Crystal Bank is limited because after 99 days (The average pay-off time, if 1 is collected every 24 hours), it will give off massive profits of  1 every day after. For some Android users who obtained a very large amount of crystals from a glitch in the game, it would be unfair if the crystals were taken away and they still had a large amount of banks. Another example are the streetlamps. These decorations give a large amount of profit per area. When TinyCo realized this, they limited them to 8 purchases per different streetlamp.

So why are some decorations or stores that do not give off good profits (at all) limited anyway? Well the ones most known for being limited per person are part of the Wonder Challenge. The Wonder Challenge has many parts that require certain recipes to be created, and since buying multiples could finish them quickly, they were limited to one each after players realized that the Wonder Challenge gave players a reward of 150, a Dimetrodon, and a Great Pyramid that produced  1 every 24 hours.
