WTF garage sale items

Happened across this beauty while searching garage sale pics for today and it made me think... What kinds of other crazy things have people seen being sold at garage sales.

  • I stopped at a yard sale once and the woman had a small suitcase with a label on it that said "adult sex toys". Just what i was looking for - used sex toys. I didn't open the suitcase to see exactly what was in it. It will have to be a permanently unsolved mystery.

    how can you live with yourself not knowing what was in there?

    Side note- my phone corrected "live" to "love". I feel it still applies.

    The one time in a million auto correct worked as intended.

     The wag  (or perhaps the curmudgeon) in me was sorely tempted to ask her where the non-adult sex toys were.    



     
  • Joel would have bought em without even looking.

    As for the rubber dispenser, id like that damn thing and take it to administrative and set it in the front offices with a note "Dear newbies, take one and trust no one..." seeing as they like to fuck people on hours and shit.

    You could have her sit at a table to collect the money and then put a sign behind her that says "no reasonable offers refused".  Just saying........

    I would have thought the market for used sex toys was all online, on the seedy underbelly of some porn forum, but I suspect that has to involve a willingness to provide pictures or video proof-of-use.

    From what I understand you can buy used panties on ebay.  I am guessing that that market is not geared towards women.

    I wonder in what ways condition affects their value

    They cover that, in some detail, on Orange is the New Black...

     
  • i haven't found anything strange in a yard sale. but i can tell you one of the strangest thing ive seen wash down my creek.



    A fleshlight. no joke.

    I threw that thing away with a glove (i clean up the litter i find when i can) but i often wondered if someones dick had been cut off and shoved in it.



    i find a lot of unusual thing flouting in my creek. like a lunch box, old farming equipment from the 30s and even a case full of cd albums that still worked   but the fleshlight was by far the most unusual thing ive found in the creek. most of the time i find gold though.



    sorry a bit off topic but when the heck am i ever going to be able to say that XD
  • Did the listing say how much it was?



    $10 or under and I would have bought it, just to say I have one.
  • It didn't say how much it was but I was thinking the same thing haha.
  • I've seen a half full box of tampons being sold (unused thank god). Strangest yard sale on the whole...coupon clippers sale, selling products they bought ten each of...and no one buying at their pricing (same as stores).



    Some of the coolest weird things I've seen are old fallout shelter items. Usually I end up buying them lol. Old civil defense signs, radiation detectors and even a sign out of a nuclear sub...it was a sign about warning signals, what would sound if something dangerous happened and what not.
  • The old civil defense stuff goes for big bucks. I had a complete shelter kit at one point and some loose stuff. All you find around here is occasionally dentures, a fake leg that kind of thing. Or you find someone your age who has crap from their grandma's house that is identical to the stuff you couldn't sell at the estate sale lol. Seems like everyone in the 50s bought the same tacky stuff.
  • I stopped at a yard sale where I discovered the guy was selling his porn DVD collection.
  • That's a flea market staple out this way. There's always a box of porn with a price on the outside. Oddly enough a guy i got a bunch of games off of last year had a box of vintage magazines on the same table.
