No actually I meant that none of my junk is worth more than $300. Bought all of my appliances "used" for cheap (found on various internet postings from around Guadalajara.) All I have that stays plugged in is a washer, dryer and fridge and cheap microwave. Oven and water heater belong to the homeowner, but they are gas anyway.

My [non-judgemental] philosophy is that these things are for utility more than the bells and whistles. Not to mention these items that lose half or more of their value within a year or two. I always buy used appliances and then keep them repaired myself, occasionally with the help of Youtube videos. If something totally dies or gets fried, no big deal, I can easily replace it out of savings with something equally inexpensive.
