Previously used by you? Toss in a couple of your pillows and I'll give you 5k the lot. :D
 
Hmmm....maybe I should have started with the Barney tapes. ;)

Childrens video tapes, most without boxes: Paid, ahhh....$7-20 for.

Samuari and Kiwi, you are both very bad boys. You're in time out for the duration of the tag sale.

:D

With you? on the bed?
 
I wouldn't go over a buck on the videos. For the bed, you might wanna put a discrete sign up saying "make offer" and see what you get. Or check out the classifieds in your local paper to see what people are selling similar items for in your area.

:kiss:

Hey, I made an offer!:p

lol! Hey Samuari? I've been meaning to mention for the longest time how much I like your Jim Belushi av. My favorite was Samuari Sandwich Shop where he accidentally gets Buck Henry in the face with his blade. *snickers* Fortunately Buck was ok.

Rubypie? I didn't read that they were Barney tapes. Go for a quarter apiece on those. 50¢ apiece on any others that are old. For the newer ones, go for a buck.
 
Some of them are worse, Norita. I have Teletubbies I'm trying to unload here.

What would you charge for broken tapes? They can be taped back together, I just don't have the time for it. A nickle?

Should I put my sex toys up for sale? I have a fantastic idea! Nora, you should come here and demonstrate the sybian on my front lawn. :)
 
oh good lawd


In regards to the Teletubbies that is...heard they brought in good money tho.

Around here we have weekly papers that come out, full of people selling bigger items.. furniture and high price things.

Check into something like that if you can, you'll have less hassle doing that and you'll probably get what they are worth.


A suggestion for the tapes, especially the broken ones.. donate them. :)
 
Check out what things are selling for on Ebay. That will give you a price range at least.

That'll definitely attract attention. :)

In high school, I was secretary of the community service club, and I organized and ran a garage sale for charity. It was a lot of fun and we made big bucks. I have yet to see so much cash in one place as I had in my pocket then.
 
Do you have any action figures?
I'm looking for some Spawn and Batman stuff to fill out my collection...
 
Oh, BTW, about the tapes-

They aren't really worth selling because they go for so little, but many pediatrics wards and children's hospitals desperately need videos to entertain the kids. Definitely donate them.

Excellent idea, Pyper. My son was in the hospital when he was an infant, and although they had a vcr, they had no tapes. Thanks. :)

Caly, Teletubbies freak me out. I can't get to the tv fast enough if they come on. I might be willing to pay somebody to take them off my hands.

Chele, I was kidding about the Sybian. I just want to watch Nora ride it on my front lawn for my tag sale customers. :)

A literotican sent me the SNL action figure for Samurai Baker, compleat with "two swords and removable bakers hat, with push button chopping action." It is a treasured momento.

BTW I still think that the bed should go at auction, following a demonstration.

OMG! *swoons* How the hell did I miss this? (oh wait, I was playacting as honorary clique goddess for the night!)

Umm...how about I just show you privately, then I'll trade you for it in kind. :D

BLOWOUT SALE!

EVERYTHING MUST GO!

50¢ a piece!
In that case, I want the car, the big screen tv, the vcrs- with all the tapes-, the computer hard drive with all the pics of Ruby and the turkey leg and mashed taters in the fridge.
