<p>[QUOTE="antidiem, post: 1046357, member: 30"]When it was time for me to sell off all of the bookshelves and display pieces from out of my shop, I was unable to recoup the $60+ bucks per unit it cost me to build 6x6' pine bookshelves, nicely vertically braced in the back and front braced, painted white enamel. I was unable to sell any of my store fixtures for any profit. I eventually accepted an offer of $75 on a cypress cabinet shelving display with two doors containing antique wavy glass just to get the thing out of my shed. </p><p><br /></p><p>So I'm not going to give advise to purchase wood furniture unless it's very inexpensive and you can actually use it on your own property. Especially dark brown wood furniture. Such a shame, I know.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
