Just got this from some podunk town in Mid-Michigan for $800 via Craigslist. Impulse buy.
Perfect condition, original finish. I can't find many of the Room Dividers online that have recently sold.
Anyone familiar with these and how'd I do (price-wise)?

Unless youre a merchant on...
Unless youre a merchant on 1stdibs and youre willing to wait 5 years to sell it for $1800, I dont think youre going to make much of a profit with your $800 investment. Depending on where you live of course, but Id say you paid low to mid retail for it.
That said, I think it looks cool and am always surprised I can sell the dressers from this line for about $800 to $1000 despite the fact that they are poorly constructed and look cheap up close.

Not many Room Dividers?
Thank you for the reply.
No intention of selling it, just interested if I paid too much.
Not using it currently as a room divider (the small drawer pushes through with the same pull on the other side and there are identical upper sliding doors on the other side.
I've seen several Sculptura dressers, side tables, and headboards online all of them refinished, but not many of the room dividers. Have you? I like the original finish (darker than the refinished pieces I've seen).

Not sure how rare or common the room divider is.
Ive seen a few in my area over the last couple of years, but obviously the dresser and nightstands from the line are much more common.

Broyhill premier sculptra
Hi! Nice find! It's part of the broyhill premier Sculptra (not sculptura) collection. Manufactured in approx 1960. Just saw the same piece online for 1250. I think you paid a good price for it!
