I'll never forget my grandfather's garage sale. I learned something that day. Why,he sold old out-of-print magazines for a dollar apiece. Comic books you can't buy anymore went for six dollar and up! My grandmother's wedding shoes were fifty-three years old. Someone paid forty dollar for them. My grandfather also sold a pedal sewing machine for six times its original price.it doesn't work, but the buyer didn't care. Granddad couldn't sell his collection of butterflies, though. I guess butterflies haven't changed much over the years.
