Well, I’ve noticed a few “Junk” items going for far more than they seem to be worth. Unless I am missing some intrinsic value or hidden purpose of “Junk” items, I guess people just buy them for “lulz”? Well, being new to the community, I figure, hey, maybe I can get some quick money selling this so called “Junk” too! But I feel bad unloading valueless crap on other people. So let me provide an interesting backstory for my birdhouse.
It was the summer of 1994, and the wild frontier of Montana was being encrouched upon by Walmart. Forests were being destroyed to furnish $4 dining room chairs. Little animals were being crushed. Etc etc. I bought this birdhouse at a Walmart, to attract birds. I will not go into detail about why I wanted to attract birds….. That’s between me and the birds. Anyway, winter came, the birds flew south, and I found a new… hobby. Rabbit watching. So I tossed away this birdhouse. I found it last week in the attic. I hosed it down a bit, so there’s only 3 or 4 really stuck on pieces of bird crap. I’m sure that way it will feel more “homey” or “worn in” or some **** to the birds. So yeah, buy my old useless birdhouse and have a little fun with our feathery breathren. I certainly won’t judge you for it. Log in to see images!
Also, since I know a lot of people will just say “tl;dr”, you don’t have to read my ****ty backstory, you can still buy it if you don’t.

Holy cow, I didn’t expect such a big turnout so soon. I feel like I need to post nude pictures of myself now for whoring myself out. Oh, also, will this auction really get closed for abuse? I didn’t know that happened. I saw a marble going for a lot of money so I thought it was a good idea Log in to see images! |

Yeah, generally you can’t be creative and get the price bumped up on ****ty items. They will generally return the auction stuff, but the automatic system can’t tell the difference between “A joke between a bunch of people” and “moneytransfers using daily junk” |

I would, but I’m sure it would just get closed for abuse again. |
