If Facebook yard sale accounts have taught me anything, it's that everything is desirable to someone else.

A guy bought a new TV at Costco and posted the empty tv box with styrofoam for sale for $50. The first few comments were people mocking him and then the next several were people vying for it. He sold it. HE SOLD AN EMPTY BOX!

I've also seen people sell empty iPhone/iPad/Apple watch boxes on there for $10-30 a pop.

Hmm. Well, give us an update when you've managed to sell your number. Should be a nice hobby for you. Keeps you occupied and out of harm's way.



70-75 degrees is the forecast high temperature today where I am at.

I have a swimming pool only a few feet away from my back door.

What about you?


70-75 is too cold to swim.


But also who cares where OP is. How is that relevant to her desire to sell her 202 number.

It is not valuable. I changed numbers a few years back and asked if I could keep a 202 number (it wasn't a dealbreaker, it's just what I was used to) and got one no problem. No one cares.

It's not like back when everyone had a landline and your area code indicated where you actually live (though I live in DC).

Is it like in 1997 when I got a 917 number instead of 212?

Nobody cares what anyone else's phone number is anymore, we're all "contacts" now.

202 is not the same.


I agree with everything you just said but some people prefer the DC area because of politics

I could care less. I am thousands of miles away from DC.
