IKEA doesn’t trick you into buying more stuff; it organizes its stuff to trigger compulsive buyers to buy more stuff that they don’t need. IKEA is actually quite good about providing inventory locations and stock; you can shop online and pre-plan your entire run before you set foot in the store. If they were really committed to dark-patterning your shopping experience, they would make inventory harder to find and play games with their pricing (like what Best Buy does for expensive phones, i.e. display the per-month price of the phone with its total amount underneath it).
