[QUOTE="John, post: 63618, member: 684"]That pretty much confirms what the used furniture owner in our town related to me when I sold him the L. Hitchhock (see pic) to him for the princely sum of $75.00. The store owner loved the piece but almost didn't buy it because he said it would spend some time in his store before selling to a buyer who appreciated Hitchcock. Before selling the piece, I did show it to a reputable consignment store (they refused it) and advertised it on Craiglist for several months with no luck. Ebay was out of the question because of shipping costs.
