There are many benefits to purchasing gently used furniture. It gives an opportunity for home owners and renters to get rid of used furniture without throwing it into a landfill, and even earn some extra cash! It also presents an opportunity for people to buy furniture on a budget. Not to mention you’d have a positive impact on the environment! At Pac-Rat, we are no stranger to thrifting furniture.
Check out some of the best reasons why thrifting furniture is the best way to buy and sell furniture.
Why sell?
Convenience
Forget about going through the trouble of creating online ads and sifting through dozens of people who may or may not actually want to buy your item. You also don’t have to let it sit in your living area and then let random strangers into your home to come look at it. By taking it to your local consignment store, you can drop it off as soon as you want it gone, and forget about it until someone decides to buy! It doesn’t really get better than that.
Get extra money

Once you’ve dropped off your furniture to your desired consignment store, all you have to do is go about your life. And then, once someone buys, you can enjoy your cut of the profit without having to break a sweat! How cool is that? Let Pac-Rat help you with your spring cleaning and consign your unwanted furniture today!
Why Buy?
Quality Finds
Forget the days of cheap particle board furniture from various superstores… with used furniture, you can be sure to find a hidden name-brand kitchen table set or entertainment center. The possibilities are endless! All you have to do is simply come in and browse the selection of your local consignment store, and you may just find exactly what you need.
Better Prices
By spending less money on used furniture, you will have reduced chances of experiencing buyer’s remorse. Buyer’s remorse is a common feeling people get after making an expensive purchase. Not to mention, you won’t be as attached to the product and won’t have a problem replacing it when the time comes.

Both Buying and Selling Supports Local Business!
Supporting your local business is essential – a fact made even more relevant considering the past year. While chain stores and retailers will surely survive, give a little extra TLC to your local consignment store by coming in and supporting them with a purchase. Not only will you save money, but you might even make money!
