The problem with tag sales is that everyone expects to pick up items for pennies or a few dollars.
Yep - I went to one near here - a huge gorgeous home where the guy was being transferred to Puerto Rico. There was a gorgeous mirror -30" x 40" with a beautiful frame on sale for $30 - a fraction of what the original cost would have been. A woman was trying to brow beat her to lower the price and she stuck to her already low price. The woman walked away (TG) and I snapped it up. Love it. BTW- I only stopped to see how they were pricing things - I'm so bad.

Just couldn't pass it up - I could never afford that new - now~~~IT'S ALL MINE MINE MINE
You should be proud of me -they were selling a Jaquar - passed it up.
I have a beautiful round HEAVY mirror with a gilt gold frame I would have been happy to ship to you. I am going Danish-modern-lightweight. The heavy stuff goes out with the shredded files.
So I decided to take one box at a time to my scanner. I'm having the jitters about discarding the actual photos after I scan them. What if the JPG or TIF files of the photos (scanned into PhotoShop) aren't "openable" in 10 years? And too, there's nothing like holding a single photo in your hand, it's so much more intimate than looking at family snapshots on a computer screen. I'm wondering tonight if I ought to do this at all, or go back to the paper photo album routing . But then, no multiple copies of photos I want more than one kid to have (mind monkey: do they care, will they care, they won't give a hoot....but a grandkid will....but maybe not...)

Save the box and let them make the copies if they want.
Multiple copies means multiple boxes means you're going in the wrong direction here with downsizing

I now have ten boxes. If I take all winter to scan and then still have ten boxes, what progress have I made in downsizing?
