Used dining tables in Hervey Bay typically sell for A$96 to A$670 (about $67 to $470). Dining tables sell on material and seating capacity, and the two things buyers cannot tell from a photograph are how solid the top is and whether it extends.
Selling a dining table in Hervey Bay
Hervey Bay is a retirement and holiday town on a sheltered stretch of water, best known for whale watching and as the crossing point to the sand island opposite. The population skews considerably older than the national average, and the second-hand market reflects that in both directions.
Everything is a short drive and parking is easy, which makes this an unusually simple place to arrange a handover. For a boat or trailer, agree where it can actually be hitched and turned before the day.
On boats and marine gear, check the trailer as carefully as the boat. Salt water is hard on bearings and brakes, and a trailer that has been dunked for years is the part most likely to cost you first.
Hervey Bay, in Queensland, has around 55,000 people, which means a small local market, which makes the nearby towns part of your audience rather than an afterthought. Brisbane, Gold Coast and Sunshine Coast 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
- Solid timber construction rather than veneered board
- 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.
- Check for wobble, tighten the leg fittings, and look closely at the top surface for water rings, heat marks and scratches.
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
Seats, material and length: “Solid Oak Extending Dining Table, Seats 6-8, 180cm”. The number it seats is the primary search, and extending is a strong selling point that should never be buried in the description. If chairs are included, put that in the title too.
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.
