Thread: Value of antique moldings and doors?

I have no idea where else to post this so I figure here is probably a good place to start.

I have acquired some vintage baseboards, doors, and stuff, and I'm curious as to where I can find out what they're worth. I'm not much for vintage stuff and I would rather not see them go to waste. They are between 80 and 130 years and in good shape and I'm sure others will certainly appreciate them more than I do.

I will snap some pics this afternoon and post them, but in the meantime, is there an online resource or anyone got an idea as to what something like that might fetch?

Thanks,
Walid.

Pictures will be great.


Are the doors tall? Hows the condition? Also what kind of wood?

Try this,

You might be able to contact these people for feedback:

They have a reputation for unique and interesting items, but from what I hear they are not much on customer service. Good luck.

I'd like to add another question to this topic if that's ok...Anyone know of a better marketplace for antique stained glass than Craigslist/eBay? Craigslist around here is full of people who want something for nothing and I want to make sure I get top dollar if I'm going to have to go through the effort of packaging and shipping such fragile pieces. I have an American window and a fire screen imported from Sussex England that I could afford to get rid of.
