Used dining tables in Los Angeles typically sell for $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 Los Angeles
Los Angeles runs on cars and on the entertainment industry, and both show up in what gets listed. Camera and lighting gear circulates here in a way it does almost nowhere else, and the climate means outdoor furniture and sports equipment stay usable year-round rather than spending half their life in a garage.
Distance is the real cost of a collection here, not the price. A seller on the other side of the basin can be ninety minutes each way in traffic, so most people arrange handovers on their own side of town and name a specific parking situation.
For camera and lighting gear, ask whether it came off a production and how heavily it was used. Rental-fleet equipment can be excellent value, but it has worked far harder than the hours suggest.
Los Angeles, in California, has around 3.9 million people, which means a buyer pool big enough that almost anything finds someone, and close enough together that collection is rarely the obstacle. San Diego, San Jose and San Francisco are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
Handing it over in Los Angeles
USPS, UPS and FedEx all cover the country. USPS Ground Advantage is normally cheapest for anything under a few pounds in weight; above that the gap narrows quickly.
What dining tables are worth
What lifts the price
- Extending mechanisms that run smoothly
- Matching chairs sold with the table
What pulls it down
- Water rings and heat marks on the top
- Wobbling legs and loose joints
Working out what yours is worth
- Look at the table edge to see whether the grain runs through or stops
- Measure the length, width and height, extended and closed
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.

Put in the description
- Length, width and height in centimetres, plus extended length if applicable
- 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.
