Ho, Ho, Howdy, fellow stackers! Nowadays simplicity and savvy choices reign supreme, many of us find ourselves saddled with heaps of unwanted trinkets and unused doodads. Rather than letting these varmints gather dust, it's time to don your spurs and engage in some cowboy trading—turning these odds and ends into a tidy sats stack. Here's a roundup of ethical and straight-shootin' options and tips to help you make a few bucks off your unwanted loot. Ready?

A. Suss Out Your Wares! Before you hitch your wagon to the selling post, take a gander at what you've got. Are these items one-of-a-kind or as common as tumbleweeds? Knowing the lay of the land will guide your selling strategy and help you compose a perfect postAd into the ~Agora territory.
B. Mosey on Down to Returns and Exchanges: if your loot is still in pristine condition and you've got the receipt from the giver for warranty purposes, reckon it might be worth a trip back to the general store for a trade or some store credit. When you're too lazy to do so, just take a shot and share it with swapping post.
C. Saddle Up to A Trading Posts harnessing the power of the digital prairie of the ~Agora. Lasso in potential buyers with straight-shootin' descriptions and highfalutin' photos. You can see how, just right here. For specialized loot like gadgets or duds, rustle up some tags on the title, like [BUY] - [SELL] or [AUCTION]. These joints make it easy as pie to connect with folks lookin' for exactly what you're peddlin'.
D. Ease Up with Local Bartering, rustle up your neighbors with a good ol' garage sale or turn to local haunts, it's always a good idea to socialize and worth to give it a try. Selling around to you within your IRL community means less travel, less carbon emissions and the chance to meet your customers face-to-face... and if they aren't interested there's a good chance they will refer you out your item/service within their network.
E. Gift it Forward, Cowboy-Style and don't let your goods gather dust; pass 'em along to charities or outfits that can put 'em to good use to other people around you. Places like homeless shelters, animal sanctuaries, or children's hospitals are always on the lookout for a kind-hearted donation. And if you're too remote to do so, you can always list it as a free item within the ~Agora
F. Get Crafty as a Cactus because if some items seem too ornery to sell, you need then to get inventive! Repurpose, reuse or upcycle 'em into somethin' new, be creative and look them from another angle, change their position, share thoughts about them with your surrounding folk. It will help find that thing another place or use. It's not just savvy; it's eco-friendly too. Saving the item, saves the environment too! Below some examples:
  • Accessories: Use belts, scarves, or ties as dividers or accents in your trays.
  • Homewares: Repurpose decorative items, such as vases or bowls, as stacking containers.
  • Hardware: Convert vintage electronics into unique decorative and useful pieces, here's a great idea for a epad, an old phone, and your old plaque!
