<p>[QUOTE="verybrad, post: 4499093, member: 37"]Can provide a rough resell value based on my semi-rural Midwest location. Also keep in mind that the following values reflect the less than ideal finish currently seen on these. Unfortunately, most people do not want antique beds, so they do not bring much. Yours is extra nice so maybe $100-150.00 to the right person. The wardrobe, maybe in the $200-300.00 range. The dresser $100.00 or so. This is if you can find someone who wants them at all and values may be a tad optimistic. </p><p><br /></p><p>As you can see, not a lot of value these days. They used to bring quite a bit more but are out of fashion right now. They all need finish work and most people do not want to do this kind of work. They would be good candidates for paint but would hate to see them succumb to that fate. They are nice examples of late Victorian furniture and may see values rise in the future some time if not painted.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
