<p>[QUOTE="verybrad, post: 224231, member: 37"]A good rule of thumb is, that if it was expensive when new, it is more likely to be expensive today. Designer furniture holds its value for the most part. Of course this is not always true and some things that were inexpensive when new, bring good money later. Value is somewhat based on fashion so what might have been valuable at one point, may not be now. For example, oak Victorian furniture was the rage in the 70s-80s. It is out of fashion now and bringing half or less than what it was then.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
