    I saw a deal today where old, unwrapped VHS tapes, of blockbuster movies, are now worth a fortune.

    Most everything that is considered junk, trash, useless today may
    someday be worth something to someone someday.
    But then people toss out old clutter to make room for new clutter.

    Joe,

    But then people toss out old clutter to make room for new clutter.

    I've got so much clutter with knick-knacks, etc. from my parents, that
    it's pathetic.

    I wish I knew someone locally who'd like to purchase a whole slew of
    vinyl LP records, and a bunch of books done by the late Clive Cussler. Nowadays, I'm afraid to post something in the paper or online...I've
    seen too many reports of thugs who show up and kill the seller, then
    they ransack the place.
