<p>[QUOTE="mark737, post: 4407531, member: 14894"]True, I shouldn't assume the new members know about 1stDibs. When I first started getting into MCM furniture about 10 years ago I bought an American of Martinsville dresser for $50 and then found a listing for the same one on 1stDibs for $3,000. I contacted the dealer, who was within driving distance, and asked if he wanted to buy mine for $500. I figured $2500 would be a nice little profit for him, but he wasn't interested, didn't even make a lowball offer. That's when I realized their pricing was a sham.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
