If looking to furnish for yourself it's not too bad. I'm like you- I have plenty of pieces here that I need to work on first before purchasing more.

GoodWill is more expensive here than most but some of the religious ones, especially if they are not national, can have good prices. I have pieces of my own that I need to update, things from my grandmother that she also salvaged from family.

I think looking for used furniture - for a great price is key to flipping; so that great price can be appreciated by the seller and the buyer! <br />Patricia @ 9th and Denverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04786692442689958889noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9173649280963485189.post-11033732319022766602015-05-08T07:47:58.524-05:002015-05-08T07:47:58.524-05:00I view several sites on FB everyday, where people ...I view several sites on FB everyday, where people are flipping furniture. I think everyone is out looking for a bargain and a piece of furniture that has been made to look new (with cheaper prices) is exactly what people are looking for. A lot of the Older chairs, even though they need to be stripped and recovered...are much more steady than a lot of the newer furniture today. Hope this works out for you. Have a Blessed Day...
