Will be in the next year or so looking for a new bedroom set (king size bed). Just curious what others have paid for bed, dresser, drawers, nightstand ... etc the works?
Answer
First of all, make sure your mattresses are very comfortable. Don't be afraid to lay on them while you are in the store. Next I agree with the previous person about not going all matchey-matchey. I bought a matching dresser, chest & media cabinet for around $2700.00. I don't have a problem with whether they are solid wood or not as long as the look good and are sturdy. I bought a couple of inexpensive bombay chests to use as bedside tables and painted them to match the walls & chair. I didn't buy a headboard but I bought a set of candle holders that hold 16 votive candles ( 8 each). These are flame-less candles of course but when they're lit at night it is very romantic. Also, I bought a pair of inexpensive lamps and painted them the color of the walls. Believe me I'm not a crafty person but I had an eye for what I wanted & it turned out very well. Just take your time & have an idea of what you want your room to look like. Also, don't overcrowd the room.

How much does bedroom furniture (decent quality wood) depreciate each year?

Answer
The best thing to do is to get on to Craigs List, Backpage.com and Ebay. See what similar pieces are going for. There is no Blue Book value for furniture or mattresses. At best I would say you would be lucky to get 40 - 60 percent of origninal value.
