Vintage wooden folding TV tray tables, set of 4

Folding tray table sets sell as cheap utility furniture and as kitschy vintage decor. A complete set with its stand and intact laminate tops is worth listing; single tables and broken hinges usually are not.

Estimated resale range (used)

$15 – $35

A ballpark, not a quote. Condition moves this number a lot, and so does who turns up to buy it. It isn't an appraisal and it isn't a dealer's offer.

What matters when you check it

  • Check the laminate or veneer tops for lifting, burn marks, water rings and deep scratches
  • Test that the folding hinges and the storage stand are intact and not wobbling
  • Confirm how many trays are in the set, since four-with-stand sets sell far better than singles

Where the number comes from

Watching what these go for, not a record of sales. The range is a judgement call from what the same thing fetches secondhand. When an item has real sources behind it, they'll be printed here with the date they were checked.

Before you sell anything, look at sold prices rather than asking prices. Asking prices are wishes; sold prices are evidence.
