The Blonde Diaries

Well it seems like my poke at humor regarding Hurricane Ike didn’t exactly work. The latest update from the National Hurricane Center at NOAA has moved Hurricane Ike further north on the Texas coastline and has Houston positioned to get hit by the horrendous northwest quadrant (aka the “bad side” of the storm). So tonight once again I was going through the normal hurricane preparation list: food, batteries, clean clothes, water. One thing I did notice is that I do not have a video camera to make a video of the contents in my apartment. One of the things insurance companies prefer for you to have in addition to receipts is pictures of the items in your house/apartment so that they can easily tell what type of items you have and can easily estimate a quote to help you recover.

Since the camera would become part of my hurricane preparation, I thought finding a used video camera might be best to start with until I further researched cameras. I went over to UsedPrice.com and was able to search for used camera prices so that I could obtain the fair market value of cameras as I looked at them. After searching for other electronics these past few weeks I have learned that not all websites properly price their items and I do not want to be caught off guard again. UsedPrice.com is great for both buyers and sellers of used items because it allows people to leave product reviews and then allows you to purchase for a small fee (or in packages) the average current selling price which allows you to be an informed buyer or seller. If you are in the market to buy or sell, I highly recommend visiting UsedPrice.com to learn more about your products and their pricing.
