This Bassett piece looks to be in good condition, and you can get maybe $150 to $250 depending on where you live and the market for furniture sells. Because of the prices for new pieces, there is a market for those who would buy and refurbish . Here is what the newer Bassett dressers are going for.- www.bassettfurniture.com/.../dressers.aspx - also remember , if you are selling, do that locally , and consumer picks up . This will save money.

Your dresser was made by Vaughn-Bassett Furniture company and not by Bassett as these are 2 entirely different companies so be sure that you list the correct brand if/when you decide to list for sale.

The Vaughn-Bassett has a relative/part owner of the original Bassett Company but they made mostly different styles of furniture and are still in business today (Furniture made in USA ).
Bassett Furniture factories closed in 2007 but still has retail furniture companies that sell lower quality furniture imported from overseas.

There are a few dresser by Vaughn-Bassett listed for sale on eBay but it appears that most of this brand is being sold new in furniture stores. I did not find anything like your dresser on any site.
You can Google Vaughn-Bassett dresser and find a lot of styles but I did not find your particular style.
I have a link that has contact information for the Vaughn-Bassett company listed below. You can send your pictures to their offices and ask about the dates and maybe even value.
vaughanbassett.com/contact

Here is a link showing the different styles they make and retail prices on most. Your piece will not have the same value and your area will have a lot of what value your item will be because you will have to list it as pick up only and you could be in a good or bad area for this type of furniture and also what is generally paid for furniture in your area.

You do not say if you have the mirror or dimensions of the dresser and these are important to a sale. If you list it for sale you can start with a high price, accept best offers and lower the price if no one makes an offer.

Basset furniture is not considered high end. I think you could get $225 or less for it. It looks like it was made in the middle of the 20th century.
