Hi,
I have some furniture pieces (leather couch, breakfast table, counter seats, etc.) that I am looking to sell sometime very soon. I was wondering if there are options/services out there that buy things like this instead of me having to advertise on Craigslist or Facebook ads, etc. If it helps, these pieces of furniture are from Rooms2Go and are about 3 years old.

Thanks in advance,
RJ

The only furniture consignment shop I have come across is The Guild Shop near Montrose. They are very selective on what they take in for consignment though.

What about your local Next-door.com site? I've sold a couch and formal dining table using it. Always people selling furniture on there.

Not as many anonymous randos on there as Craigslist. In theory, anyway.

Not almost new furniture, especially the leather sofa ... One needs to give away a LOT to get any tax deduction. For single taxpayers, the standard deduction increased from $6,500 to $12,000; for married filing jointly taxpayers, it rose from $13,000 to $24,000.
Absolutely not worth it, unless you're giving away (donating, charity etc.) really big $$$$

OP, you can try:
https://www.sheknows.com/living/arti...nt-craigslist/ (especially the last three)
will add: etsy, ebay, Trove Marketplace, Chairish, Viyet, Varage Sale, Trove (local), Bonanza...

or
https://wellkeptwallet.com/sell-furn...e-and-locally/

You will get probably way more than from a consignment store, but here is a list:
https://www.designersfurnitureexchange.com/
http://www.2nddebutfurniture.com/id5.html
http://potrosresaleshop.com/
https://www.yelp.com/search?find_des...=Houston%2C+TX

Good luck!!
