I agree.. While some "finds" are out there, thrift shopping isn't as it once was..
Yes, there was a time before eBay & Craigslist when thrift could be a gold mine. Often the late Grandma's "stuff" was just hauled to the thrift and dumped without much of a search because "What am I going to do with all this stuff? Take it to the dump and pay? I'll donate it."
You could wipe the crust off. Why or how do you put crust on dildos or is the crust from eating in bed and being piggish or sloppy? I(s your family okay with that ?
Find a way to paint reality better for all. Make and sell the used crusty dildo with used toothbrush glued on or you could try to clran your up your sheet.
