Getting rid of stuff

How do you guys take care of getting rid of old bike parts? I don't mean the real junk... That stuff can go into the trash I don't even hesitate. I mean, the extra brakes that you don't have a use for but you've been holding into for a year or two. Or the levers or derailers. Extra stems that are just like all the other basic nitto's you already have a few of.

I got rid of a lot of stuff last year, and I am kicking myself for it. First gen 105 Aero levers with white hoods, some drops and brakes and derailers. Extra forks, etc. I'm kicking myself now! That's not even the start of what I was going to toss, but someone payed me a few bucks to take the lot.

I had a time away from cycling and didn't really think about why I needed any of this stuff. Unfortunately, I wanted a lot of it and now I really want some of it!

This is me saying, I have a box now and it's for old bike stuff that is nice, that I can't use at the moment. But that I will use eventually! And I have a storage unit that I'm probably going to dedicate to my bike and car part collection. I don't want to have to re collect everything again! Even if it is in boxes not getting looked at, some of this stuff really isn't junk at all.
