<p>[QUOTE="gregsglass, post: 154302, member: 78"]Hi,</p><p> It soooo terrible about furniture. I have a friend who trying to sell her house. It is a wonderful Victorian built in 1870 with all belongings including furniture. The bedrooms all have marble topped furniture including original opal glass dresser stuff</p><p>including 10kt and 14 kt hatpins. The house is on the Historic Register including all furnishings and the garden. It was a mess 35 yrs ago. It has been lovingly restored and all repaired. She has spent over a million dollars having it restored and furnished. Her highest offer has been 250 thousand. Five years ago these houses were 1-2 million dollars. Her living room suite was bought for 12 thousand and she spent 5k on having it restored. The highest price she was offered was 2 thousand and that included the Oriental rugs and the bronze fireplace equiptment and piano, drapes and all. I have lived too long.</p><p>greg[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
