<p>[QUOTE="verybrad, post: 11123243, member: 37"]On-line furniture prices are often high due to the willingness to ship and catering to people where cost is no object. Rarely do the items sell for asking price, with the buyers bargaining for a better deal. Values are also regional. Here in my semi-rural Midwest location, I would be selling these at retail for about what you are asking but willing to take less. Someplace like facebook marketplace, I would need to be about half that. At auction, I can often pick up pairs of antique chairs for as little as $5.00. I am sure big city prices are higher.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
