What is the stuff in my garage worth?

Written on the original Movable Type site and recovered from the Internet Archive.

Kijiji recently commissioned a study to figure out if American’s had stuff lying around the house they didn’t use (duh) and what it might be worth (that was more interesting). 

Now I have a second observation.  What level of cash is your cut-off for “not worth my time”?  For me it is < $100.  Anything for which I will receive less than $100 it is not worth my time to deal with posting, offers, shipping, etc.  Just not worth it.  The fourth column that would be interesting there is the tax receipt value.  I would bet you that the tax benefit of donating say a Video Game console is greater than $4.
