Used dining tables in Shreveport typically sell for $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 Shreveport
Shreveport sits on the river near the state line, with a riverboat casino economy, an air force base nearby and a long oil and gas history in the surrounding region. The downtown has a substantial collection of art deco architecture.
The two halves of the metro face each other across the river and people tend to stay on their own side, so name the one you mean. Base access is managed, so arrange meetings off it rather than assuming you can drive in.
Humidity here is high for much of the year. Ask where the item was stored and check upholstery and anything electrical before money changes hands.
Shreveport, in Louisiana, has around 180,000 people, which means a smaller local market, so price sensibly and expect the right buyer to be willing to travel a little. New Orleans, Baton Rouge and New York are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
Handing it over in Shreveport
Peer-to-peer payment apps dominate private sales, and buyers will usually offer one before they offer cash. Sales tax does not apply to a private sale between individuals.

What dining tables are worth
What lifts the price
- Solid timber construction rather than veneered board
- Extending mechanisms that run smoothly
What pulls it down
- Water rings and heat marks on the top
- Wobbling legs and loose joints
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 underside or leg fixings, showing construction
- Extended, if it extends, and any damage close up
Put in the description
- Solid wood, veneer, laminate or glass
- Whether chairs are included, and how many
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.
