3. Furniture and light fittings

Furniture has always been one of the most expensive antiques, and it will remain so for a long time. Art Deco is becoming popular again in the field of home design, and if it happens that you have an old table or any other piece of furniture that can still be seen as something timeless, you better don’t throw it out.

The same goes for any light fitting that dates back to the 20s or 30s. Also, the Ikea furniture that was made in the 70s is now selling for incredible prices; sometimes you can sell it for seven times the price you paid in the first place.

Maybe it is hard for you to believe that your old furniture or those dusty light fittings can be some of the most expensive antiques that many of us have in our homes, but this is the reality. See what you can save and sell it for some quick cash.

    Many people collect old records and go to Salvation Army store or the library’s annual book sale. When you donate your records you can deduct amount on your income tax if you use govt approved charity. The Salvation Army and Goodwill can tell you how much to deduct for each record.
