Used dining tables in Brisbane typically sell for A$96 to A$670 (about $67 to $470). Solid wood and design pieces hold value; veneered flat-pack tables do not, and the difference is visible at the edges.
Selling a dining table in Brisbane
Brisbane is subtropical, and that genuinely determines what survives second hand here. Humidity is hard on anything upholstered, wooden or electronic that has been stored badly, and buyers who have lived here a while will ask where an item was kept before they ask anything else.
The river cuts the city in half and there are only so many crossings, so which side someone is on matters more than the distance on a map. Most people arrange collection rather than posting, and utes are common enough that furniture moves easily.
Ask where the item was stored before anything else. Humidity here is hard on upholstery, timber and electronics alike, and something kept in an unventilated garage can be well past saving while still looking fine.
Brisbane has around 2.6 million people in Queensland, which means a deep enough buyer pool that most things sell without having to travel far to hand them over. Gold Coast, Sunshine Coast and Townsville are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.

What dining tables are worth
What lifts the price
- Recognised mid-century and design makers
- Matching chairs sold with the table
What pulls it down
- Water rings and heat marks on the top
- Flat-pack tables that will not survive another move
Working out what yours is worth
- Measure the length, width and height, extended and closed
- Photograph the top in daylight so marks are visible
Getting it ready
- Measure the top, and if it extends measure both the closed and extended lengths.
- Establish whether it is solid wood, veneer or laminate, and say which — buyers price these very differently.
Photograph
- The top surface straight on in daylight, which reveals marks honestly
- The underside or leg fixings, showing construction
Put in the description
- How many it comfortably seats
- Solid wood, veneer, laminate or glass
Collection only, and mention whether the legs detach, since that decides whether it fits in a car or needs a van. Have the fittings and any allen key ready for the buyer.
Listing is free and there is no selling fee, so the whole amount the buyer pays stays with you. You and the buyer agree the handover between yourselves.

Common questions
Where can I sell a dining table in Brisbane?
Put it on WishThrift free and deal with the buyer direct. The river cuts the city in half and there are only so many crossings, so which side someone is on matters more than the distance on a map. Most people arrange collection rather than posting, and utes are common enough that furniture moves easily.
Are the marks on the top sandable?
On solid wood usually yes; on veneer usually not. Say which it is and let the buyer judge whether they want a restoration project.
