40 Things From the ‘00s That Could Make You Some Serious Cash

Time to check your attics, you might find there is cash up there after all, some of these items I've never even heard of, although some I did own once, alas they're long gone now.https://uk.yahoo.com/news/40-things-00s ... 0322.html

I have the Millennium Falcon and Castle Grayskull from 80s. No idea if they are worth much.

I've got a panini sticker from Sweden '92 of Carlton Palmer as an England player. Not sure who it was meant to be but reckon the misprint could be pretty rare and worth a bob or two

Millennium Falcon might be FF, but I'm not an expert on SW memorabilia, Castle Grayskull like you I have no idea of it's value.

Some nonsence on there. I suggest some of the prices shown are asking prices on e Bay which nobody is ever gonna pay. A blockbuster video card?

If you bought a thousand quids worth of shares of Pfizer in Nov 2000 you’d have 900 quid now

But if you’d bought thousand quids worth of shares in Amazon you’d have over 200 grand now!

If you were lucky enough to buy CT's BFC shares they'd be worth well over 100 grand now! Sorry CT 😊

I sold Castle Greyskull and a shed load of He man figures etc for 10 quid about 20 years ago now. Wish I'd kept them now :(

I've seen them on eBay for like £30, so doubt they're worth much unless they are boxed and unopen.
