Brian D asked:


I’m closing my mortgage office in Oceanside, NY. All my furniture is only 6 months old and of very high quality. I want to recoup as much as I can get. What % of the retail price should I be asking for and how can I get it sold quickly?

I tried a blast fax to other mortgage companies asking for 60% of the retail, but no one has replied. If I don’t get at least 50%, I’ll just give it to charity and take a write off.

I have 3 executive desks, 4 executive chairs, 5 grey work stations with matching file cabinets, 2 old L shaped workstations, 4 art prints, 29 comdial phones with system, 9 computers with xp professional, an okidata b/w laser printer, 5 black mid back office chairs, a black conference desk with 6 high back vinyl chairs, and a Louie IV cherrywood end table.

How long does the post office hold a package?

I have a few packages that I’ve ordered that have never shown up. After talking with the respective sellers, I’m starting to wonder if its the fault of the post office and that they have either lost or held onto my packages for whatever reason.

I heard that sometimes the post office holds auctions on some parcels that don’t arrive at their destinations or return to their senders, so how long do they hold onto these packages? I can’t make it to the post office in my town right away, but it would be helpful for me to know.
