I have stuff to get rid of. But to be honest dealing with the lowballing scum that is 90% of the DSM scene I'd rather just throw stuff in the trash and not have any time invested.

I can certainly relate to that since I've been there before and I think we all have. If it makes it worth it to you or anybody who aren't willing or want to deal with people, I could have a community pile of donated or gifted parts that the proceeds go to Mitsustyle funds for future events and such. This way you'll still benefit from ridding parts and not have to partake in the transactions? Idk just a suggestion. Unfortunately though, most people who want money for parts are going to have to be there first hand and conduct their own business to avoid complex sales and just make the whole thing smaller. The more people there in person the more accountable everybody is at a face to face level. Meeting people makes a big difference and hopefully this atmosphere won't be sketchy and scummy like craigslist parts cars can be...

I was thinking of setting up a SUNDAY IN OCTOBER THIS FALL for a first trial.

I'd give my stuff to someone going. For now it's going in the shed.

Here is the main question. Does anyone actually want to buy all our old crap?

No one is really buying dsm parts any more. I just held on to stuff I could use my self or sell. When we moved I got rid of 2 truck loads of dsm parts to the scrap yard. Moved them all from maple grove to plymouth. Then did not want to do it a 2nd time when we moved to the other side of plymouth.

I still have a handful of things I need for the race car, and only have marginal luck with WTBs on this site.
