How a bout a "used" section - I know there are plenty of us who have
obsolete (to us) tools and supplies sitting in sheds.  At the moment I am
taking a break from sopping up the remnants of hurricane Charlie's fun
little visit to Richmond and will need to replace a few hard -to-find books
that took a beating (we were away on a glorious vacation in New
Hampshire!).  Buy low and sell decent and you could make a killing.
