All my life for Sale

I would have to say that is article was very interesting I like how he choose to sell all of his stuff instead of throwing it away I don't know how anyone could possibly want things that were made in the 80's and 90's. I also have to admit that I to have a lot of thing that I still keep due to the fact that they have sentimental value to me. But after a while I kinda get sick of staring at it and just throw it away. There aren't a lot of things that I have choose to bring to college with me because they do have that sentimental value and i want to keep it in a place that is safe and not in harm of getting stolen.

But I also think that there is a time when you keep things because they mean something to you and then there is a time when you keep things just to keep them because someone gave them to you. In this case I think that he was just keeping things just to keep them because he found them at garage sales and thought he could use them. At some point and time you have to think and say to yourself. "Wow my house is getting full and a lot of this stuff I don't even use." I don't think you should get to the point where you become a hoarder. So I am glad that he decided to get rid of some of his stuff.

I also thought it was interesting that he decided to start his own dot com instead of just putting all his items on eBay. I thought that it would take him a long time to sell them because everyone in the world knows about eBay, and he would have to advertise his website in order to get people to recognize it and decide to buy things from there. I thought he has a great idea on knowing where his things were going to so he asked his buyers to update him on the items that they purchased. I would have done the same because i think that it would be cool to know what other people have decided to do with your things. In all I think that this guy had a bright idea and decided to run with it and in the end it worked out for the best.
