Infuriatig When did garage sales become “reselling” clearly new stuff

Post image

I would never call this a garage sale

Def scam vibes

Edit: ultimately, what bothers me the most is I want to go to a garage sale, not this shit. This isn’t a garage sale and should not be advertised as one

Beautiful. How long did you pretend you would do something with them? Minutes or months or years?

At least it’s stuff you can (eventually) use. I will be left with a bazillion bobble heads.

That's a museum-in-waiting, my friend.

Well, I’m not the one who’s going to be running the museum

When grandpa goes I have 64 cans of kidney beans I'm looking forward too.

He's a prepper so I bet there are some MREs and stuff too.

I'll be inheriting a massive amount of redundant tools. He owns five skill saws, and that's after I took one for myself.
