Odds are alot will be items that, well, most ppl don't want or need or that are simply not good quality.
However, that does not mean that ALL of these items are crud.

There are alot of sellers on the Marketplace that sell good quality items for free or 1 Linden. Some even sell things at PROMO prices. like 99 Linden that are worth alot more Linden and NOT available anywhere else at these PROMO prices. We strongly recommend you look here at least once a week, sometimes sellers place things here that are literally NOT available in stores for the prices they are listed at on the Marketplace.

Example: why pay 300 Linden for a wig inworld when that same thing on the marketplace is only 150 Linden...?  It happens, trust us, waste 5 mins of your day and check, the savings could be huge.

There are bargains to be had.
We repeat, BARGAINS PEOPLES!!!

P.S Sometimes you do need to visit a store inworld just to get a idea of the quality, we accept this, however, it's a utility that is available that can save you time and in alot of cases money.
However, take care, there are still some low quality items around, if you can demo something, DEMO IT!!! before you fork out your hard earned Linden dollars.

Bored? Go to the marketplace and do a search on the word 'PROMO'

  
thats the potential of alot of bargains.

PP.SS Hawt's hot tip & Food for Thought:
If you having trouble finding that item your looking for and nothing is what you like or need, change the spelling.
huh? you say...
spell it wrong. She has found some amazing bargains simply because people have spelt it incorrectly.
Example, we are Aussie, in Oz color is 'colour' not color. Spell things how they sound, or think of common typo's and try it.
hawt = hot
colour = color
jewellary = jewellery
house = hause
Not everyone has a Master's degree in the English language with a emphasis on spelling & Linden Lab's don't magically 'fix' with pixel dust & a broom all the bad typo's and grammar that appears infront of your eyes.
(would be great though if they did.... LMAO)
