Used cars were so reasonable 5+ years ago but now anything reliable barely depreciates.


1. Mattress. Bought my purple premier hybrid (3k retail) gently used for $700
2. Cribs/ baby stuff - used for few months at 70%+ discounts
3. Smokers / outdoor bbq stuff - people normally move and can’t haul, bought my large egg for 400 w stand

That’s not the same scenario whatsoever, you understand that right?

I buy almost everything in my house on FB Marketplace. I do interior decorating on the side so I know what to look for. Oriental rugs, light fixtures, furniture, leather sofa. If you do your research you can get fantastic deals.

This, with new stuff being questionable quality, I like looking at options used

Portable generators.

People use it once, forget to close off the gas and clog up the carburetor, then think it’s broken and sell it for cheap

They aren’t really worn. It’s mostly mattress people took home and didn’t like but can’t return
