Sold a bookcase this week, and also our one and only chest of drawers which held our underwear and dainties. I bought that bureau in North Vancouver from a second hand store for $50, way back in 1979 or 1980. It's solid wood and was old when I bought it. I just liked the design of it ... see photo below.
It's schlepped along with us over the years and through all our moves (I get itchy feet every few years). At one point, I decided to paint the top. Unfortunately, at another time I decided to use it as a good surface to stand on while I painted a ceiling and that caused a crack across the top.
For $10, my buyer is getting a good deal and he doesn't seem to be bothered by the defect.
