We've found strippers clothes in two different units now and frankly, I haven't a clue what to do with them. I certainly will not put them in my booth at the flea market and I don't want craigslist costumers coming over for that. I'm not an ebayer, but I think that is the only way to do so without ruining my (very family oriented) reputation.
What do you do with items that you know have value, but really don't want to deal with? I mean.....I can't even imagine giving those to Goodwill.
And I can't even do it all in one lot as I have sizes small & extra-large.
So what do you do with your stripper costumes? Or are we the only ones who (continuously) find them?
???

Oh dang....laid that one right over the plate didn't I?

Not see I was thinking along the lines of Alloro. Or better yet - wondered if could talk my wife into them (highly unlikely).
Seriously - I know they will sell. One of the members here who has a blog and is in New Orleans got a stripper unit and did well from selling the cloths she posted. Of course they did the sales on craigslist and think also had some friends that stripped/danced. Really depends on your area.
I myself would do the ebay thing. Really no strip clubs in my area so craigslist wouldn't work to well I don't think.
If you do craigslist setup a dummy email and just have interested people email you and not give out your #. Then meet in a neutral place. Never know - you may find that quiet couple a few blocks down are into various scenes and want those cloths :)

stripper costumes, heels = Ebay
porn, sex toys = Ebanned.net (Yes, this is an actual online marketplace)
-
I would burn them. Those things probably have more STD's than the Kardashian sisters.
-
How about hitting up a costume shop to see if they would be interested in buying them?
Of course you can also hit the popular street corners in the nearest city too. They might pay more than the costume shops. ;D
-
strippers wear only pasties unless from utah then its just bikini. Are you sure you didnt find halloween stuff? Or is this stuff from your favorite strip joint due to the large amounts of info your are givining us?

Had to laugh out loud to that...
rockin the retro is this some of your gems? LOL
We just found our first porn so will be using Cobia's advice there.. :D
Ebay not bad good place to get rid of stuff like that. Give it a shot Read the ebay stuff on here, But don't get discouraged it is paying off for us.

Point #1~so did I! That was a great reply!
Point #2~uhmmmm....no. but one woman's trash......yikes~
Point #3~you've got to be kidding? 4 outta 6 units (we've purchased) have had some sort of porn. You've been very lucky....or unlucky depending on your perspective. 8)
It's funny.....the last unit of the last stop on the caravan today was an obvious strippers unit. A couple friends all looked at me like "ya wanna take this one?"......ugh......
My husband did talk to a couple regulars that said they do great with it.....think I'll see if they're interested in buying our two lots~

Storage Strippers,sounds like the next great reality show.

I'm with Money on the bible belt. It's been strange for me. I've only found drug residue in 1 unit, same unit had a Girls Gone Wild DVD. Only porn has been in 1 other unit and it was taped from playboy. Plus, only 2 sex toys (1 man / 1 woman) so far out of over a dozen units.
On the other hand - I have a stack of bibles I ended up tossing out with the porn as no one wanted them. That just felt wrong.
This is a semi-plug for Rebecca but if you read http://storageheroes.blogspot.com/ blog you will see what they did with the stripper unit they got. I know she sometimes visits these boards but not often.

Starting to get off topic, but I am amazed at how much transexual (folks with both sets of sex organs) porn I find in units. Must be a real popular underground/in the closet fetish in are society I did not know about.

Well we have not gone through all the stuff in our unit from yesterday but after finding the porn and womens size 11 shoes. Might be interesting or scary.

So far have found two bibles with the porn. ??? What ever.
There was not a church that would take the bibles? Just thinking not sure what we will have to do with ours yet. Drop them off at the steps. Throwing them away would feel wrong. but you have to what you have to do.

Bibles in nice shape can be sold on Amazon, Ebay, or flea market. Donate the scruffy, but still useable Bible's to Salvation Army, churches, homeless shelters, etc.

I return Bibles with the personal items to the facility. I trash porn, but have sold sexy clothes at flea market. Pretty easy to tell that I did not wear them :D
-
I have an "adult newsstand" in my area. I keep meaning to see if they buy pre-owned porn dvds.
I do know that dvdempire.com will buy pre-owned dvds. They probably low-ball everything, but any cash you can get is better than trashing them.
How many of you ever imagined you would be discussing how to sell porn?? :P
