Em and I plan on having a yard sale in a couple of weeks, and in that sale we will also have an "antique furniture sale." I'm going to post some of the things we'll have for sale and the cost. We haven't been able to move any furniture online yet, but we are not giving up hope yet. :) Take a glance and see if anything strikes your fancy. Have a blessed day!
First, my dining table and chairs. The table is a nice piece. I'm not big on knowing what wood is, but I believe it is solid oak. Someone else who has seen it may want to correct me. Has some wear and tear on the top, but in great condition. The chairs are green wrought iron and wicker. I have had these for more than 8 years, and they are all in really good condition. I would take $150.00 for the table and chairs. (SOLD)

Didn't sell on ebay, but if your interested...
This is a Contemporary Style China Base/Hutch from Bassett with a Cherry finish. They are custom made. This hutch has 2 beveled glass doors, a hole and chord to install a light fixture, mirrored back, curio ends, wine storage, and the base has 2 reeded glass doors, 1 adjustable wood shelf, 3 drawers, a finished top. The hardware is a Nickel finish. One handle is missing. (I have replaced it with a stainless steal knob. Not noticeable, but a replacement knob could probably be ordered from Bassett. This is a new piece, and has not been used. It is in EXCELLENT condition. Only has one small noticeable scratch under the first drawer on the edge. Could probably be easily disguised with a stain or marker. The glass shelves and their hardware are missing, but could easily be bought and installed. The base and the hutch are separate pieces. The base has adjustable pegs on the bottom to balance the piece on an uneven floor. Currently this piece is still for sale at Bassett. It list in separate pieces with a total cost of over $1,600. (That is the clearance price)
The measurements for both pieces:
Hutch: Height 47" width 52" Depth 19"
Base: Height 34" width 50" Depth 18:"
Total height of piece is 81"
Even though this isn't on ebay, Em and I will still donate 5% to St. Jude Children's Hospital in honor of our baby Ivee.

What's on Ebay right now?
This is a beautiful birdseye maple armoire. Birdseye is a very rare wood. Do not know the exact year or who made it. It is in fair to good condition. Have done some repair to the base structure. The clawed feet on the front have had a patch job prior to my ownership. Not a great job done, but from a distance, not that noticeable. Someone with excellent wood skills could make it like new again. The mirrors are beveled and in tack. It is approximately 90" tall and 48" wide at it's thickest point. The depth of the piece at it's thickest point is 25". The depth of the interior shelves is apx. 17.75". The armoire is made of wood, and is a beautiful addition to any home. The armoire should be taken apart to be moved. Will take at least two people to move it. The drawer does open and shut. The latches for the doors require a key to turn. The key is missing. Doors do seem to stay closed without the use of the locks if the floor is level. This is a lovely piece, and there have been many complements on it.

Of course, anything on ebay goes to the highest bidder, so prcing depends on that bid.
Thanks for looking, and stay tuned. I'm going to post some things that didn't sell on ebay or that haven't made it to ebay yet. Any comments are welcome.
