$150 for the dresser $150 for the set of bedside tables.

I love older furniture-- from the 20s and 30s. I frequent antique shops and estate sales and find very little that I like. I'm willing to pay but I'm obviously not looking in the right areas.

Ignore the PPs, if it's midecntury modern and in mint condition the set could go for $2k.

Can you post a pic? I would be happy to connect you to two dealers I know who buy midcentury furniture. There is a huge market for it.


There are very few people who will pay that kind of top dollar.

I bought a really nice vintage dresser for $300 and end tables for $125. (purchased from a furniture seller at the courthouse farmer's market.) I'm not sure what brand, but they're solid wood, look really nice and seem to be made well.

I craigslist often. I'd say $100 for the dresser and $100 for the nightstands. Used dressers get a lot, even if in bad shape.

It's disappointing how little you generally get for good quality used furniture. No one wants it around here; everyone is into modern stuff or the inexpensive furniture you pick up at IKEA. We let go of a 4 piece solid maple bedroom set from the 40's for $125. But what are you going to do with that stuff if you keep it?

I'd want to know more about construction. If it's made well you'd be hard pressed to get similar furniture for less than $600 nowadays- I'm always shocked by how cheap some older, handcrafted stuff can be.

Are you sure it's walnut and/or no older than the 50's?

Maybe $100 if they're in good shape. I like old furniture.

They are in perfect shape, clean. No smells.
