What should I do with antiques that I want to sell without having a garage sale? How do I find out the value?

I have small antiques (children's spoons) and I have large antiques (dining table/4 chairs). I have NO idea how to find the value, nor do I know how to unload them. I know eBay is an option for the small things, but what about the large pieces? I need help! Thanks.

1. Most public libraries will have more than a few books on the value of antiques. "Kovel's Antique Price Guide" is updated and published yearly and is probably the best known price guide. There are many specialty price guides available. If you live near a large bookstore (like Barnes & Noble), stop by and look at their selection of books. You should quickly find the information you seek. Good luck with your search.
2. E bay is a good place for all sizes but how do you price them. Go to any local auction house and give it to them on consignment if it has any value they will take it and sell it for a percent fee usually.
