Don't count on the $20 to get rid of the crap, and you'll lose some great itmes that way. On your list a good half of the items are under $20. And some people put a $20 or even $30 price for something I wouldn't give away. A rating scale sounds nice, but a lot of people very happy with a product wouldn't remember or bother to add a good rating, but one customer with a bone to pick about something very minor would, so the rating would be "poor" when the product is actually excellent. All part of the way the 'sity works. It's a wide open venue, unlike Daz or rDNA who have only a few content creators on staff. Here anyone can sell anything so long as it passes the 'sity's product testing. And, as has been said before, one man's trash is another man's treasure. I've paid good money for things that probably no one else wanted, but I had a real need for. They were crap products, but it was just what I needed to finish a scene. When I was flush, I'd buy a big package for an incidental prop included. This actually is a good part of the reason I've not had the courage to actually try to sell something. I do pretty good clothing, but the textures are crap (not my strong point). I'd rather give it away than have to deal with it all, even though I'm so broke I'm drinking dry milk (which is actually pretty good in coffee).
