Living in a transient foreign community here in South Korea means that twice a year lots of people leave. January/February is one of those times, and various Facebook buy and sell groups are suddenly bursting with ads from panicky departees looking to make a little cash before they move on. Sometimes you can find a real gem to buy at a discounted price, though you have to be fast to grab the most popular items such as air-cons or comfortable armchairs. To find something interesting you also need to trail through pages of discolored plastic storage boxes, half used bottles of shampoo and other ridiculous things which seem to belong in the trash. There aren't the recycling/Freecycling/Goodwill options here that exist in many other countries, so for now it seems that Facebook rules. How do you deal with things you no longer want or need?
