Style-wise I'm probably going for a quasi-"industrial" look with wood and metal mixed. Is Etsy really legit for finding furniture? I've started nosing around Wayfair but haven't made it too far yet. Seems like $500+ for a dresser is "normal" which I think is absurd, same for $200+ nightstands. I want new ones to match said dresser but not for that kind of money.
Also curious where you all sell old furniture - the dresser will just get pitched but my current nightstand and most living room stuff will all be gradually sold and replaced.
Craigslist still, believe it or not, and community or region's For Sale Facebook page if your neighborhood has one. We've had good luck with both. We also about to yard sale it for our community yard sale this weekend. From my first newbie experience with a yard sale last year though, you tend to get an "interesting" crowd that drives around to community yard sales to buy stuff...not usually the ones who want to pay more than $5, for anything
