lilshadowdweller Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 I discard any item worth less than 300 unless it's a book or none-gross food item. Those can be used for good despite how obtainable they are. It's just so worthless to keep these worthless items in existence, especially when you're throwing the items at mostly new users hoping for some nice things. I know Neo isn't real and all that, but seriously, would you throw only your junk items for the poor? It just seems cheap. :guiltysmiley: I don't get why people just don't discard them anyway. They go to the vast oblivion of nothingness. If I donate, it's to be useful. Because I enjoyed the Giving Tree when I was a new users due to the good things some people put in. cosmic_autumn 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maralie Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 I agree that it's kind of rude to bulk donate junk items. I'll donate if it's an item that someone can find a use for, like food or a book, but for items like fishing junk, I'll typically discard. Occasionally if I have a lot of junk I'll put it up in a trade to help people going for packrat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lils Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 im honestly too lazy to do both, i usually use the quick stock when im sure i got everyone i want in the SDB and i just click the one that selects everything in my inventory. if it's mainly stuff like obsidien rock or something i discard, if there are lots of omlettes and jellies i donate :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiger In A Tie Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 Just about everything goes straight to my SDB, or store if it's worth 700+ np. I rarely discard/donate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bonniebabe Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 I always donate because I just think people want it so I may as well give it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starrystar Posted December 29, 2011 Share Posted December 29, 2011 I usually donate. I recall that as a newbie, I used to enjoy the thrill of grabbing items off the money tree and reselling then im my shop. I loved the satisfaction of out-clicking other Neopians haha!

yupyupyup Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 I'm pretty much a true pack rat. Even after getting the avatar, I couldn't break myself of the habit of just chucking every item into my SBD if I didn't need it right then. So, to answer your question, neither donate nor discard. (As you can imagine, my SBD is filled with a lot of junk. But since I forget what I put in, I sometimes make nice discoveries when I look through it from time to time.)

TheNiku Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 I donate everything. I remember when I was a Neopets n00bie, and I got all my items from the Money Tree. All the worthless junk they had there soon became mine, and it made me so happy to get free items that I really liked. I donate so that, hopefully, other newbies can feel the same joy that I used to have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
annikarose Posted January 22, 2012 Share Posted January 22, 2012 I usually donate except for the truly useless fishing items... the old discarded shoes, the sea fungus blocks... but if it's edible, I figure it's useful for somebody. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rune Valentine Posted January 22, 2012 Share Posted January 22, 2012 I generally end up discarding junk from dailies because really, there's way too much of them flying around Neopia already and they're not really doing anything. But stuff like food dropped from an RE or something that I think a newbie would find useful, I chuck it at the Money Tree. It's really not that hard anyway if you're using Quickstock xP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lady_ryl Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 I donate most things, unless it is real junk like a pile of dung(yuck) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heather99 Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 I used to donate, until the new avatar came out. I figure once I've managed to get that, I'll switch back to donating. I like donating, because I actually remember when I was 8 or 9 managing to get an old thong from the tree, and being so excited that I'd managed to grab something. Wow, that was long ago.

Trig Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 Now, because of the new avatar, I'm throwing everything in my shop! It's nice to be making even a small profit on things I would've otherwise given away. I'll wait until the solution for the avatar becomes available, then maybe I'll go back to my old ways!

Jinxineta Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 Depends on what item it is. If it's junk, I discard it without any second thought. If it's still somewhat useful, I just donate it and wait for the others to snap it up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
