Antique furniture appraiser blowing smoke.

[Anomalocaris]

I have to agree with this. A piece of antique furniture needs to be special to be worth any real money. Quality and condition alone aren't enough.

Bullshit. It is a matter of finding the right buyer, that you could argue might be difficult, but these pieces are most certainly worth it. I am not going to give them away for 75-100 dollars. 

It is finding the right buyer, not a matter of no demand. These are the types of furniture the can and do sell. 

I am going to take vid of them then shop around to multiple sources to see what they say.

Most certainly?   Based on what?

For anything, there is probably one person who woulf have paid an exorbitant (much higher than market) price for it if he didn't know any better.  That is the customer you looking for.

But keep in mind the very avenues through which you might look for such an customer can also be used by that customer to discover there are others offering equivalent wares for less than you are.

So a realistic price of your antique is likely not determined by how much you or the buyer think it is worth in isolation from the market.  It is determined by what the buyer thinks are comparable pieced to what you offer, and how much such comparable pieces go for on the matket.
