    Pigpen - I had got to the point where I had so much stuff I couldn't Ebay it all so I did 2 piles [huge piles] 1 was for the charity shop and 1 was for the bin and then acted on it - charity shop got loads and the skip was filled nicely too but the end result was worth it as I had some space in the garage but now I'm facing the same problem so I'm going to do the same thing again, by the time I've photographed items, uploaded them, filled in all the gumf for Ebay it isn't worth it. I only sell something that I know will raise enough money to make it worth my while. Just get rid of it and make life easier for yourself - isn't that the whole point of flying
