restore antique furniture
Is restoring old furniture a profitable idea?
I was thinking of buying old furniture at an antique shop or second-hand store, restoring and then selling it. Anybody have any opinions over this idea? Has anybody done this before?
Antiques, and their condition are ALL in the EYES of the beholder.
Kind of like the A.K.C. dog shows...You never really know why that one , won the top prize?
Any how, some folks will pay top dollar for gorgeous refinished antique pieces!
Some people will try to lynch you for touching n antique piece, ad destroying its original condition.
Either way, you could make a fortune, or loose a fortune.
I would suggest, either playing stupid and working for a local Antique dealer to feel out the clients.
Or going to school to figure the correct approach.
Oh there is one last think my old age forgets about!.
Take pictures, put them on some kind of Internet site for sale, then judge the feedback! Some times I am so old I forget logic in this new age! DUH sorry! Just post pictures, and wait to see where the best offers come from!
