Lovely set! Depends on where you are located.
In some places (mostly big cities where there are people with disposable incomes who love the good solid furniture) the dresser and mirror alone can sell for upwards of $1000-1500 (as a set).
The nightstands can sell for up to $250-$300 each (in some markets and that for the set in others--really depends on the supply and demand where you are located.
The bed is the challenge is sadly very few people want the full frames. Most people want queen, king and California king beds so the at is the tough sell part of this equation...although you may find someone who will want it as a set.
If it was mine--I would call around to a few furniture dealers in your town and see what the set fetches in your area and go high, take best offer. I am a life long reseller and I don't do furniture any more because I don't want people in my house-so you may fetch less--but you could always have a shop sell it for you (no muss, no fuss).
If you are going on your own, if it was me, I would probably piece out the items (dresser and mirror) as one lot, night stands as another and then the bed (taking whatever you can get for the bed. I base this statement on the market where I am (western PA). Your market may be different so do a little digging and follow the trends in your town!
Post back what you learn!! Great pieces!! Hope you do well with them!
Pghgirl40 is one of our best experts when it comes to identifying and pricing furniture here on Thrifty Fun. She has been doing this for quite some time and knows the prices. I have found that selling online is quite difficult because of the amount of listing and the variation of prices people are asking for these items. There is one site called Charity that does take this type of furniture on consignment and tries to sell it. Keep in mind that the prices they are asking are quite high and it is harder to sell the furniture at these prices.
