Buying Slightly Damaged Antiques

If you watch the Antiques Road Show, etc. on TV you will see that things with some slight damage go way down in value - So you might be able to acquire a slightly used version of something you would like at a price range you could afford and then fix it up. Trust me, very few people will know the difference.

Thats true, about one mo. ago I purchased a
Murphy #23 (?) Cedar Chest, Flat Lid, Wood Casters.
Needs Sanding, Varnish, & 2 new Hinges, for holding up thr Lid. No Tray or shelf though.
I paid $25.00 for it.
