Bought a Credenza Secondhand and Saved Big
I just bought this credenza! Similar pieces at Walmart or Ikea are as cheap as you can get, but I didn't want particle board. I also wanted to examine the quality before purchasing, so buying online was not an option. Walking around Andersonville, there were several new pieces that were fabulous, but they started at $1,200! One piece was vintage and completely redone... they wanted $2,300!!!
I found my credenza at the Broadway Antique Market (6130 N Broadway St.). I love it! It's the perfect size, in pristine condition, and came with the glass top. I asked for a discount at the counter, and the cashier gave me 10% off. That brought the price to $400. Of course, I used my Schab Visa 2% cash back card, so the actual price was $392. Delivery would've been an additional $75, but, fortunately, I had a friend with a truck willing to help me.
