Yesterday afternoon an antique dealer made an offer for my mother's antique hutch. Yes it is indeed an antique.
While she was there appraising the hutch another dealer stopped in. I had called him because I wanted a second opinion on the hutch.
Anyway, I ended up getting $700 for it. I am glad I called in a second person to look at it. The woman made a lowball offer just before the man walked in my front door.
He took one look at it and offered $700 for it. At that point I wouldn't have sold it to her for twice that6amount. I annoyed me that she was trying to take me for a fool.
The hutch is gone now and looking for a new home. I was so thrilled that I forgot to ask how old he thought it was.
In any case I have my money and he has his hutch. Oh, by the way, I did find out that it is really a china cabinet and not a hutch. Silly me.

That was a good sale. You always need to get multiple estimates to get an idea of value.
