My local reStore wants $100 for a 20 year old washing machine with a tag that says "we don't know if it works". They want $50 for a shitty old door ripped off your parents house. I used to love that place, now it's not even worth looking.

*Edit: grammar

Fair. I live in a LCOL area, mine don’t touch appliances, outdoor stuff, etc., can’t even donate to them, so it’s really just a place for cheaper remodeling stuff.

They have furniture, cabinetry, and building supplies. That’s about it. Limited plumbing fixtures, limited lighting, some “extra” paint and carpet tiles in mostly neutral colors.

Doors (no frame) are like $5-10, same with window sashes. Doors with frame are iirc $25, I never looked at windows with frame.

An entire very nice kitchen cabinet set ripped out of a newer condo is like $600.

Rules:

  1. Be civil and nice.
  2. Try not to excessively repost, as a rule of thumb, wait at least 2 months to do it if you have to.
