I think i am more sad at the thought of splitting up a set that has been together so long, but since furniture is inanimate, I guess i shouldn't worry about it! Since I only paid $225 for the whole set to begin with, getting $300 for the chairs isn't bad at all and donating or giving away the table or hutch won't bother me that much. It is a pretty pecan color, but just didn't work with the knotty pine in my dining room. the Saga walnut just gleams! My only c-list offers were for the chairs anway, which are in very good vintage condition, need to be reupolstered since the fabric is a dull beige and the cushioning has lost its lift! enjoy seeing your scores! I am enjoying the estate and thrift scene here in Pittsburgh. Lots of 50's 60's housing plans and many first owners are now moving out and the kids are selling off the great stuff!

I really can't help you much because I don't know the condition of your set or what your market will bear. I will say this, it might be difficult selling the rest of your set without the chairs so you may want to ask a higher price for that reason. My go to guide for real world second hand value is eBay Completed Listings. Being able to see what items SOLD for on eBay is the sole reason I have an account.Mr. Modtomichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16804031065414619749noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6668802457367853649.post-7998655875167072852013-01-03T19:19:22.146-06:002013-01-03T19:19:22.146-06:00HI Mr. Modtonic, love your blog.

I am actually selling my Drexel Medalist table, hutch and 6 chairs and the chairs are just like the Drexel Profile line you have above. someone wants only the chairs for $300. does that seem reasonable? I am selling because I scored a Broyhill Saga set from the original owner for $265 (table with one leaf, big hutch, buffet and 6 chairs). would love a Saga room divider someday like you, but alas, hasn't come up in Pittsburgh. thanksAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
