I decided to try again (3rd try) to sell this tape dispenser before giving it to Value Village. I guess giving it to charity to make a profit on would be the high-road here, but if I can get a few bucks for it I’m going to try.
So this time around I’m selling it from more of a philosophical stance. Maybe someone will appeal to my need to have hope in mankind (capitalism?) and buy it. Who knows?
Disgusting tape dispenser - represents all that is wrong in the world - $10 [craigslist]
The thing it, I’ve gotten two responses already:
Hello.
Are you British? I am and no-one has made me laugh with such an impressively disillusioned rant since I immigrated here. Now the tape dispenser has at least donated something positive to me. I laughed out loud, Thanks, I hope you find it a glorious home.

Hello,
Sorry I can’t take the little beast off your hands but that was very amusing. When I saw the title line I couldn’t imagine a tape dispenser really being as horrendous as all that but you’re right; it’s totally gross. I wish I could show you the baby “Defender of Freedom” statue I found in Parade magazine.
Cheers
