Can you share some funny yard sale stories?

At one yard sale, I saw a set of really old bowling balls. The owner told me that his family had a bowling alley in their basement for years. One time, they had a family bowling tournament and his aunt accidentally threw the ball the wrong way and it went through a window. They all still laugh about it to this day. He was selling the bowling balls because he was moving to a smaller place.

At a garage sale, there was a huge teddy bear for sale. The seller told a story about how it got there. Apparently, it was so big that it took up half of their living room and their dog was always scared of it. They decided to sell it because they thought it was cursed. We all had a good laugh about that superstitious belief.

There were some houses with courtyards for sale in Baguazhou. To be specific, there was a rural tile-roofed house, including four tile-roofed houses and three bungalows. There was also a 200-square-meter yard. The price was 120,000 yuan. In addition, there were some other real estate projects, such as Baguazhou private houses, Lidao gardens, and bungalows. Some of the houses had courtyards, and the facilities were complete and convenient. However, the specific housing information and price needed to be further consulted with the relevant real estate agent or developer.

There was a stock short sale success. An experienced trader saw that a certain tech company had overvalued its new product line. They were projecting huge sales but the market research showed it wasn't likely. The trader short sold the stock. When the company's earnings report came out and the sales were far below projections, the stock price dropped significantly, and the trader earned a large sum.

There was a small business owner who had invested in a commercial property at the wrong time. The property value dropped significantly.

This allowed the business owner to cut their losses and focus on rebuilding their business without the burden of the overpriced property.
