tcup345 I'm feeeeelin the love, folks! Keep it up! Being dyslexic is a tough condition to have but it needn't get you down. Persevere with whatever you want to do---look at Jay Leno, at how far he's made it and he frequently admits that he is dyslexic. You can do...

Porcospino When I was a child I never bought second hand things, because my mother doesn't like second hand things and if I saw something in a second hand shop that I liked she usually refused to buy it. I didn't start buying second hand clothes till I was an adult, but...

UK_Shree I don't mind second hand things although when it comes to furniture it is important to me that the item is not overused and is still in good condition. Other than that I think some of the best second hand things to buy are books, as they timeless and can be...

Oneironaut I really like to do this. I think that by doing this you can get some really cool stuff that they don't, maybe never have sold in stores and you can get stuff that has gone out of style, or maybe original stuff that has come back in style. Also a lot of times...

mipen2006 I love walking through second hand shops, and sometimes buy. You can find some good second hand furniture, and many small bric-a-brac items. As for clothes, I wouldn't worry about wearing someones discarded clothing, if it were in excellent condition.

calyxus For me, it is practical to buy second hand things. Of course, they are much cheaper compared to brand new ones. However, you have to check the quality of the items. If you buy second hand items, they should still be in good...

Idlewild I sometimes buy used stuff, but I like getting it free even better! I'm on the mailing list for Freecycle.org, which allows people to offer and give away things they don't need anymore. I've gotten a computer monitor, TV, CD racks and cabinets, furniture, a...

migsmartinez Hey there! I've bought a few second hand things before. Most of them, games and controllers for the Xbox 360. I also bought a used laptop. I don't think there's anything wrong with buying second hand stuff especially if you get to see the merchandise first...

applefreak There are certain things I don't mind getting second hand ones. I've bought quite a few pieces of second hand furnitures. I've also gotten a second hand fridge because I needed one more fridge. If I were to buy a new one, it'd have cost me more than a thousand...

derek_a Most of the time, I will buy second-hand because I think to myself, "why pay full price for something that is going to be second-hand the minute I walk out of the store?" I have grown up with parents who always looked to buy second-hand first. Only if it...
