Can you fine the gold?
 

Oh dear!! I can't even see any metal through the rust.

Someone will buy it thinking "great side table".

wow your right I don't see the gold either,
maybe if you cleaned it up ,that is alot of work
you could paint it gold

Wow.. I have one just like that in my garage..wish I could get $175 for it.

Wow I got one of these with the treadle sewing machine attached It cost 5 dollars We stole it didnt we

funny!!! :D:D:D:D:D:D

I live in the south and these bases are seen in about every rural yard with flower pots on them or used for potting shed table.

you just gotta laugh at this idiots!

It's Dallas, for Pete's sake! Some fool from Frisco/Plano/Southlake will buy it and rejoice, LOL!

Jan in VA

Did you notice the name of the seller? Bet they're one of those "Storage Wars - Texas" type buyers.

I so wanted to call and just say, "in your dreams".

in Texas a lot of these are used as bases for picknik tables but even then it is way to high

I bought one at auction for a friend, $5. Our agreement was that she wanted the base and I could have everything else. I took what was left of the cabinet apart, kept the hardware and the contents of the drawers, which included some useful notions and a brand new pair of Gingher scissors still in the package. I really made out on that deal.

Dang I got three in the barn. Didn't know what I had.lol

My SIL just bought a cleaned up, painted, with a faux marble top at Round Top Texas antique show for $40. I e-mailed the seller and told them their price is way too high!

So true !!

A lot of people watch those shows....American Pickers, Storage Wars .....etc.

And think what they have is worth a fortune. If it was, it wouldn't be sitting in the yard gathering rust.

Nope, can't find no gold! Couldn't pay me to take it!

Maybe I could sell them the twin to it that my hubby found many years ago in a room that had been walled off where we rented and gave the stand to my mil and fil painted ( there wasn't any rust ) and sanded top and both of my inlaws have pasted I now have it in my living room for a stand.There is no way i think that anyone would pay that kind of money for a bottom that has that much rust or not! They may belive that they have gold but if no one buys its still just an old rusted stand.

I guess you can't stop them from dreaming.

It is actually Ft. Worth. Very different from Dallas.
