Selling Guide
Where to Sell
Facebook Marketplace, Nextdoor, or OfferUp. Due to weight and low value, local pickup is the only viable option.
Selling Tips
Wipe down with a magic eraser to remove scuffs. Tighten all hardware. Market it as a 'nursery dresser' or a 'DIY upcycle project' (Shabby Chic style). Take photos in natural light against a clean wall.
