<p>[QUOTE="Lucille.b, post: 6302, member: 51"]A friend is trying to sell a family piece on Craigslist and he emailed me to see if I could give him some pointers for his ad since no one has contacted him yet. It is an antique hutch, it was his grandmothers and they are dating it to the 1920's. My first thought was that he was asking too much, as pieces from this era seem to be selling for less than they once were. (He's asking $850). As a side note, I think his family was somewhat well off, so it might have been an expensive piece at one time. Is there anything special about this hutch that one might include in an advertisement? This person is not an antique collector in any sense, this was just a family piece. I just pulled the photos off of Craigslist. All thoughts appreciated -- date/style/value, etc.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1323[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1324[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1325[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1326[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1327[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
