.... We also got rid of the large CD player and amplifier (boat anchor).
I actually sold a 200 disk changer for money! Most downsizing is a matter of giving things to Goodwill

I had to look it up....maxsold.com

Maxsold now has branches across Canada and the US, so they may have auctions in some of the regions where some of our group lives.
I was thinking I may need them someday and/or maybe they'd have some value in the future.... Well I don't think I'm going to need them in my lifetime
I do agree, they can. The problem is that you would probably be more comfortable throwing stuff out than they would.I wouldn't bother getting rid of it unless you want to/have to. This recent craze for "you've gotta get rid of everything now, so someone else doesn't have to after you die!" sounds like a big ole guilt trip to me. "They" can hire an estate seller, same as you can.
That's funny....I do exactly the opposite.Wife and I have a saying: "when in doubt, throw it out".
It was interesting to see what sold for a fair sum (Mr. A's vintage audio equipment), and what went for pennies (anything glass or ceramic, even good stuff).
It took me 8 months! to go through my mother's 4000 sq foot hoard loaded with mice. Don't do that to your kids. .
Yes, I found yet another stash of photos today in a piece of furniture that I had not checked. I just don't know how to proceed on all of the photos.
We still look at our old photos from time to time... Most (99%) have been converted to digital which makes it easier to sort and find.... Once in a while someone in the family will ask us if we have an old photo of "this or that" from the past... Ex. an old house, pet, car, family event, etc...Throw them out. Nobody looks at old photos. Not even you.
Nobody looks at digital photos, either. But at least those don't take up physical space.
