    I have no idea why people sell rubbish it makes no sense, its a bit like my locals flea markets, they should chuck it all in a skip and sell things worth buying.

    I quite like Junk. Some of it sells surprisingly well.

    I'm talking about pound shop rubbish and broken phones and chargers and cables etc and the usual modern junk and endless piles of clothing and shoes taken from the recycling bins and broken/fake bits of jewellery, also out of date food like cans of beans and packets of snack foods all expired. The same stuff is there week after week. Not many good stalls left.

    Bought this box of coins for $2.99, still needs a thorough look but so far pretty good. A 1920 Pilgrim half dollar, an 1832 capped bust dime and an 1857 braided hair one cent. Looks like mostly 19th century stuff.

    Oh yes, very well, many employees including the manager will point me to stuff they think I would like, most of it pure rubbish.

    Isn't that amazing, that after all this time, they still don't really know what you're looking for?
