Goddammit, man, you just fucked my day up. I will now spend the rest of it trying to grab what little youth I have left, to sparingly use it during the rest of my days. I think I just hid the mid twenties crisis, if there is such a thing.

Hey, back to OP: A keyboard is also something people often seem to have, from piano lessons from way back. Some people prefer not to buy a full piano, so seel them your own compact solution, that you probably don't use.
Other things, that might work for me. Video games controllers, from old consoles, like the n64, the SNES, the original XBox. Those old games, maybe find a couple of games that are still in high demand. I just found my copy of LoZ: Link to the past, and Ocarina of Time, I'm thinking they might still have value. Now I need to figure out whether I can separate myself from this game.

Also, old mp3 players, monitors you no longer use (LCD only, craigslist is flooded with free CRTs). Maybe clothes, if they're in good enough condition (I'd say jackets, or coats, things that have functional value).
Speakers, stereos, car stereos, CDs you may have ripped to mp3, old vinyls, hard to find books, old hard drives, computer parts, ram, PSUs, golf clubs, bikes, helmets, DVDs.
Chargers for things you no longer use, cell phones.
I'm sure you could find some good stuff, some people make a business out of going to flea markets, looking for dirt cheap stuff, and ebaying it. SO unless it's complete junk, someone's junk is someone else's treasure.
