What really bothers me is the people who sell items for way more than they are worth. Recently, someone wanted $500 for a 10 year old 50 inch plasma tv. The Salvation Army won't even accept tvs that are more than 5 years old. Also, furniture is often priced for more half what someone paid for it years ago. If you are selling something, price it reasonably.
