Default You'd Pay $400 For This Table, Wouldn't You?

My daughter is looking at buying this table. The seller wants $400.

It is rock solid, no wobble at all. It appears that the top has been replaced.

37" x 74"

The 3 drawers are all in good shape and slide easily.

The gap between the 2 sections that make up the top are not even but I can
see the plugs that hide the screws. I told my daughter that if she ever wants
to fix the gap, it would be easy to do.

What do you think?

This is why I think the top is not original. With the drawer slid out
you can see where the glue blocks appear to have been removed.

Thanks!


From the picture showing the bottom, it looks like the top might be newer. The base is outstanding -- beautifully turned legs and solid construction. That top looks like finished common pine. You can remove it and make a maple or white oak table top for her.
