Help me price this stuff for CL

[tarheels]

My mom's helping an elderly neighbor get rid of stuff...and what a random collection of crap it is. I, of course, have to post the stuff on CL because mom's not technologically inclined enough to know how Answer prices for whatever you feel like you know - you don't need to give an opinion on everything. Thanks!

Item 1: A glorious set: long dresser, chest of drawers, nightstand, mirror



Item 2: A set of khaki cushions (lawn chairs extra): 2 lawn chair cushions and 4 regular chair cushions



Item 3: Vintage oven - no idea if it works



Item 4: Dresser



Item 5: Valances - one double door/window, one single



Item 6: Four burgundy damask curtain panels



Item 7: Black tv stand



Item 8: Antique vanity or telephone stand



Item 9: Bed set - frame, mattress, 2 nighstands, a small 3 drawer chest



Item 10: Mirror

Honestly some of it I wouldn't even put on CL. Just donate it.

1-$75, but be willing to take $50

2-So it's just the cushions and no chairs? $25

3-Donate

4- $20 looks like particle board from the photo

5-Donate

6-Donate

7-$10 or Donate b/c it's not worth the $10 hassle

8-$25

9-$50

10-$15

I would donate it too, but it's not up to me and my recommendations on that score haven't been well received!

We paid I think $400ish () for our vintage Wedgewood (CL seller asked for $700) and then paid about that much to have it refurbished. Ours looks almost exactly like that, but it has a trash burner as well (essentially two extra eyes for a total of 6). I'm sure about the asking price, but I can't remember the final negotiated price. There's a huge market for vintage stoves in California, but I'm not sure about elsewhere. We were facing $1,000+ for stoves from the dealers. The 40s/50s stoves are hotter now though than the earlier ones.

My FMIL paid 850 for a vintage non working stove when she was living in TN.

Honestly for the mattress since it isn't in the original bag I would contact someone to dispose of it properly. Also craigslist lists used mattresses as a prohibited item.

I would donate the window treatments and the tv stand

Yep, we had to give our '50's Frigidaire Flair away for free, but I saw them going for over $1k in CA.

Then it might be worth giving eBay a shot. Someone somewhere might want the parts and be willing to ship, if nothing else.
