Extra Luggage and Handbags

A lot of us find it hard to let go of old, extra luggage? Why? Well, I personally think it’s because after a good, long vacation we put off throwing them out. Before we know it, we’ve booked our next vacation and now it’s too late to buy new luggage anyway… Whoops!

And let’s be honest, you’ll probably only need one carry-on bag and one large piece of luggage per person, anyway. Time to let go of the others.

Similarly, your collection of handbags are probably taking too much space in your home. How many of them are you still using? How many have gone out of fashion?

These have a high resale value. If you’ve got old Chanel, Louis Vuitton or Hermes handbags, these could catch a pretty penny since they could either retain or increase in value over time.

    I have old record albums from the ’40’s, 50’s, 60’s, and 70’s. Where can I find out their value, and where can I sell them?

    1. Unless they are in VERY good condition, i.e. not played, let alone played to death like I know my albums were, the value is very little. Find an independent record store in your area (bingoole it) and ask them, bring them a list.

  2. Not very impressed with this article. Author seems to think we all move into a 500 square foot apartment. The last thing I will be getting rid of is my musical instruments and favorite old music, my treadmill, my gardening equipment, etc. Why not just write an article titled “how to host an estate sale and sell off everything you own.”

  3. Luanne – I tend to agree with you. This article should read what to sell when you have to move into assisted living….
