This week we're back to "Two Thoughts on a Tuesday" at BlogDumps. I've been trying to thin out the 'stuff' in my house for when I move (as soon as someone buys the house!) I have quite a few vinyl albums, which I've not played for years, but I'm finding it difficult to get rid of them. I've looked on eBay and none of them are worth much, so they'll have to go...but to a charity shop; I just couldn't bin them, that wouldn't be right! I don't know what I'll do when I get around to my books...there are lots more of them! How is it that something that has been created with such care and effort can become so valueless? It just doesn't seem right to me!

Hey, Pete -
I have three boxes of old vinyl in a storage bin that I can't part with ... some pretty old, but like you say, worth little on ebay. My wife bought me a turntable that converts them to MP3s but I've only done about a dozen (of hundreds!). At least my books can go to the library.

You've got a click (from me)!
Thanks for sharing. Wow, I hope I can have some of your books. ;-) So you are leaving soon when someone buys your house huh. Good luck to it and to the books and vinyl. Try amazon and listia too. Perhaps it would count or just bring it on where you going, I guess (or give it me.. lol.. just kidding). Your questions seems intriguing. I can't have an answer of those without researching it first.
So then, have a great Tuesday! Come and visit My TTOT 3.. See yah.. ~hugs~
Hey Pete,
Yeah it is awful when old treasures are deemed "worthless" At least by donating them someone would get them and appreciate them.

Donating them to a curiosity shop is good, but maybe try listing the collection in a local newspaper and find them a good home - kinda like adopting a pet ;)
I'm all about getting rid of stuff - ask everyone around me. If I stare at it too long and it's unused and taking up space unnecessarily, it's got to go.
Happy Tuesday!
