Used Ercol furniture typically sells for $21 to $700 (about £16 to £520) depending on the piece and its condition. Furniture is a logistics problem before it is a listing. Most pieces are collection only, and the sales that fail almost always fail at the doorway rather than on price. Measurements, whether the piece dismantles, and the fire-safety label on anything upholstered are what turn a browser into a buyer.

Measurements and access on Ercol furniture
Ercol is solid wood furniture built to be repaired and refinished, so an older piece with marks is a restoration project rather than a write-off. Frames are stamped or labelled with a model number.
- Mid-century frames and dining pieces are the collected end of this maker and hold value strongly
- Later production sells steadily and is judged on the state of the finish
What to check before you buy
Photograph the stamp or label and any joints. On solid wood the joints decide whether a piece is sound, and surface marks are a refinishing job rather than a fault.
For the checks that apply to any used furniture regardless of the maker, see the guide to buying used furniture.
What you keep when you sell
On a typical $360 Ercol piece, a marketplace charging 20% takes $72, one charging 13.6% takes $49 and one charging 10% takes $36. WishThrift charges neither side, so you keep the whole $360.
Listing your Ercol furniture
- Say plainly in the listing that it is collection only and roughly how many people are needed to lift it. Buyers respect that far more than they resent it
- Photograph the piece in daylight, from a low angle, in a tidy room with nothing on it. Furniture photographs badly from above and badly in a cluttered space

Questions
Is scratched solid wood furniture worth buying?
Usually yes, because solid timber can be sanded and refinished repeatedly, unlike veneered board where the surface layer is thin. Judge the joints and the frame rather than the finish.
How much is used Ercol furniture worth?
Roughly $21 to $700 depending on the item and its condition. The table above breaks it down piece by piece, and each row links to a full value guide for that item.
How this guide is compiled
