It’s true that one man’s trash is another man’s treasure, but lets try to be realistic about our “treasures”. Some pointers:

• A scrap of carpet you used to catch oil in your garage for the last 5 years is not considered a “new carpet remnant”, no matter how large or “unique” it is.
• Nobody wants to buy a 15 gallon fish tank that has a “few small leaks” for $55.
• Just because you paid $800 for your treadmill 13 years ago doesn’t mean that it is worth $600 today… especially when it needs a new belt and motor.
• Your ping-pong table is not in “like new condition” when “all it needs” is a replacement table-top.

Try to keep it classy, Craigslist. Please.
