How much are old trunks worth?
The value of a trunk depends on the condition, style, size, and make. Usually fully restored American made trunks can be anywhere from $300 to $900. A vintage French made trunk will usually be more than $2,000. There are plenty of vintage trunks to be found on 1stDibs.
