Re: Garage Sale Pricing
A bookshelf, a tv stand, some baby clothes, and a lot of other random things that we've found in our garage, basement....that's why it's so hard b/c nothing fits into a "category".

Re: Garage Sale Pricing
Keep in mind that no matter what price you come up with it's never cheap enough for some people...
I priced paperbacks at 50 Cents and HardCovers at $1...I had a couple of people actually yell at me over that..
DVDs at 2 for $5...(they were new) VCR Tapes at $1...
I didnt put any price on clothes just let them ask me what I wanted...
Old TVs $15...
Furniture like end tables and coffee tables $10-$15..
Small Appliances $5..
Check out Newsday or the Pennysaver and check out a couple in your area and make a note of the prices..

All this sounds reasonable to me!
