True, but people who see antiques and valuable collectibles as random crap are just pathetic. I can't tell you how many valuable things I've found tossed out on the side of the road by the children of people who have died. They just can't be bothered to even try to sell them. Antique furniture, jewelry, tools, you name it. I used to do curb shopping in S. Florida when I lived there, and I made a lot of money reselling those things. Some of them, I kept. I once found a huge jewelry box full of expensive costume jewelry that I recognized as collectible. I ended up giving that to my mother (not as a Christmas or Birthday gift), who loved costume jewelry, but I told her where it came from. She was thriled with it, told me she had always wanted to buy some of that kind of jewelry, but couldn't afford it.

So yes, you have to find people who will appreciate it, but that's not really so hard to do if you have taken the time to know them. I think one problem is that no one takes the time to really know people anymore. Our real-life relationships are as disposable as Facebook friends.
