How I make extra money
    #19306016 - 12/21/13 01:24 AM (10 years, 1 month ago)

I'll share how I make a easy buck.
I think this is best for then smaller suburban cities or somewhere out in the country. For example I live in idaho so anywhere like that.
I go onto craigslist and go to the free section and there's lots of free stuff that usualy doesn't get claimed due to the small population so I'll see something decent or expensive that is being given away for free then I go pick it up and then I got to the pawn shop and sell. I once ended up with a nice tv got about $30 from the shop the only thing that costs is gas.

Personally, I would be upset to know that i had passed something of value on, presumably to someone in need, and they resold it for a profit.

Depends on the situation, but IMO, i think this is bad form.

(Although i craigslist alot, and realize that you are likely doing the giver a favor by getting rid of their crap.)

in my city there is a lot of freecycling by putting stuff outside on lawns with a free sign. Got my desk for free, tv stand, both my office chairs; it would be harder to list furniture i have paid for.
A lot of the time it seems that the original owner gave it away because they could not haul it to the dump themselves. Also with things like TVs, it costs $50+ to dispose of them 'properly', so instead everyone tries to pass off their barley working tvs as 'free'.

i laugh when i see people putting up broken, 20 year old, 50" projection tvs for 'Free'. Those fuckers cost around $100 to dump

We have freecycle and freegle in the UK. Just a site to give stuff away to avoid it going to landfill mainly but most like to see it go to a good home.

Personally I think it's better to be upfront about it.  If the person just wants rid they won't mind but I think some would object.  Maybe you should try that next time and see what the response is?

My concern would be if it becomes common practice to do it and it's assumed that it's just resellers using these kinda services then people will be less inclined to give it away. They'll start thinking about the cost of the item given away instead of the benefits to the recipient and environment.

I've given stuff away on these sites and recieved. I think it's a good, well meaning idea that shouldn't be tainted if possible.  I'd hate to think the dude that collected my old xbox lied to me about his kids and just drove to the nearest pawn shop and flogged it at a low price for the pawn shop to make profit.



However, there are items that are generally just being dumped due to weight i.e. firewood.  Over here it's possible to gather up all that wood from various donors and resell as firewood.  This is fair enough because it's garden waste to the donor but a commodity for the person collecting.

Just my 2 pence.

Well then don’t give your stuff away if you don’t like the way people use possessions that aren’t even yours anymore?

I don’t get why you would have an attachment to some shit you literally have to GIVE away.

I completely disagree with someones above post. If u give something away on craigslist etc., its because u dont want/have time to sell it. U know it has value otherwise it would already be in your trash, so its absurd in a way to expect anyone else to not use it for a gain in some way, be that using, selling, or giving away, or breaking..., whatever

Good idea op. Provably get furniture, fix it/jazz it up, and sell it for some real $$

Bro that's great..

  This is completely off topic, but I just joined and don't know how to make posts. However I have a HUGE hypothetical problem, if I had penis envy shroom cakes and amazons that were fully colonized and I birthed them and dunk and rolled for 24 hours , and put them in a shotgun tararium, and after 3 weeks they have not fruited, what would I do?

  Keep in mind in this hypothetical synerio,  I have succesfully done this 3 times before with 6 different species,, and it always took a week at the most after birthing. What would I hypotheticly do?

Sorry I know this isn't the right place, but I'm going crazyyyy. Pleaseee help

Instead of letting the dirtbag pawn shop make most of the profit, sell it yourself on craigs list. That tv you got $30, they probably will sell for $100 or even more. Once you learn what stuff is worth and what you can get for it, you will find opportunities that aren't free but they don't know what its worth and sell it too cheap.

“A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the voters discover that they can vote themselves largesse from the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidates promising the most benefits from the public treasury with the result that a democracy always collapses over loose fiscal policy, always followed by a dictatorship.” (attributed to Alexis de Tocqueville political philosopher Circa 1835)

Money? Printed paper and imaginary value.. lol

And thus begins the  reverse-fusing of our one-dimentional understanding, and adds ever-expanding perspectives, in depth and number; splitting our perception, and in so doing, seemingly irrationally, creates yet more one-ness, with all that ever was, is and will ever be, streching across the infinite, inunderstood concept of everything, percievable and not.
