I felt the same way about my stuff until I had a garage sale and realized that most people were buying just to resell it at the flea market for a higher price.

I wouldn't get to worked up about it. Unless you're ready to spend your time running a flea market stall, then your goals are basically still met, but someone who values their time differently is going to capture some of the value you're not inclined to work for, and it will eventually go to someone who is willing to pay for the privilege of shopping in person. Even if it does eventually end up in a landfill, it had a few more bites at the "usefulness" apple first.
