Bassett Dresser

9 years ago

I've been trying to sell this Federal-style antique dresser. It's 46" long, 15" deep, 33" tall. Mirror is 33" long, 35" tall.
Mayhaps I am asking too much or this style is not popular now, but I've had absolutely no interest in ads I posed on Craig's List, three Facebook Online Garage Sale sites, a regional classified ad magazine and eBay classifieds. What would be a reasonable price to ask?

$100.

It's used furniture, not an antique.

It depends on the local demand ... and apparently what you were asking was too high for the local buyers.

Or the ad was poorly worded and presented.

You do need a better photo. It looks dirty with the reflections and since dressers of that vintage and style aren't in huge demand and there are a lot of them, yours has to look super spiffy.

If you think it looks dirty in the photo, you should have seen it before I dusted it! It an antique and it does have some scrapes and dings. My parents paid $200 for it at an auction in 1975 which is all I'm asking now. In today's money, $200 1975 dollars would be close to $1000.

So getting back to the original question - what should I ask for it?
