Perhaps the old rug you plan to toss isn't worth $ 150,000, like the rare tribal antique that a woman rescued from a trash bin, but taking the time to plan a
yard sale, visit an appraiser, or sell your stuff online may bring you
hundreds or thousands
of dollars.
Try telling that to the
hundreds of thousands
of collectors going into comic shops, rummaging flea markets &
yard sales, and going to conventions.
