breaking up is hard to do

sofa

C found this couch. C loves this couch. It has his name written all over it. However, our apartment doesn't love this couch as much as we do, and we haven't been able to locate adequate (read: affordable) storage until life takes us somewhere where we can spread out.

It's pretty much everything a MCM sofa should be, and it's in near-perfect shape with just a little sun damage on one of the arm rests. Naturally, I have a notion of what it's worth to me ... or Curtis. But does anyone have any pointers on how to fairly price this beauty?

Oh dear, I can't help with the price, but it breaks my heart that you have to part with this!

Surely there is SOMEONE who can store that beauty for you! Years from now you will kick yourselves if you part with it! Send around a note/picture at church... SOMEONE can store it for you. Don't let it go.

DON'T DO IT! I am telling you, you will regret it! It is such a beauty with such great lines. Truly, I would encourage you to find a friend or family member to host it for awhile until you have room for it again. If you must part with it, I suggest you discuss selling it with an antiques consignment store where they will have an estimate of a fair price. Then, you could sell or not sell based on the discussion.
