General Storage Auction Talk / What is trash?
« on: January 18, 2011, 06:42:52 PM »
What do you consider to be trash?
What do you consider to be ok for reselling?
And what do you consider a treasure?
I would love to hear what you guys think.
The reason is, today at an auction, this guy got a unit for 5 bucks. 5 BUCKS! i mean, even if 80% of the unit is trash he would find something to make a profit on. BUT NO! he took it all to the dump, except for one thing that i told him not to throw away.
Later on in the day we stopped by a wendy's for a burger, and i showed him an add online, where they sold those candle holders for $79.00 if i haden't stopped him he would have taken everything to the dump.
He even smashed a perfectly good book shelf, (Ikea bookshelf) even that one he could have sold for a profit.
So i ask you all, what is trash to you?
