Info about Armoire's
« on: November 03, 2011, 04:36:21 pm »
I purchased a waterfall armoire for 500.00, it's been refinished. Did I spend to much? not looking to resell it or anything, I love it!

The waterfall furniture that was around in the 30`s is not one that is most in demand !! It really doesn`t sell well !!  However, many of those pieces are beautifully finished and decorated and have tons of storage !! What you gave was on the high end of value range but still reasonable if in excellent condition !! Post a pic,, I would love to see it !!

Compared to what $500 would purchase in a new furniture store today, I'd say it's well worth it.

I agree - that's a looker! I don't think $500 is too much.

As far as the refinishing goes....  I would say it has added value in this case. Lots of people would love to have this in their homes because it is so nice looking. I think you did well. It looks like it will store a ton of stuff!!
