How to Get Rid of a Vanity

The popularity of a bedroom vanity---a small desk where a woman would sit to apply her makeup---has ebbed and flowed through the years. Many older vanties have some value as antiques, while mass-produced ones have little to no financial value. If there is any question about the worth of an older vanity it is reasonable to ask for a quick appraisal by an expert. Many can assess its value from a digital picture emailed to them. Otherwise, a vanity can be dispensed of without a look back.
