We never try to sell them when we replace old with new on my jobs but there is always someone that will take the old ones home. I do a lot of high end remodels and I just pulled two cast iron tubs and three top quality long gated toilets from a job and by the end of the day all were loaded up and gone. One of my hands wanted them to install in his house.
Well, i put another toilet out for garbage pick up again yesterday evening and this morning when i left for work it was gone. This toilet didn't have a tank lid.
People in my town use them as planters in flower beds!
I saw that in the little town of Rio Vista out here in the SF Bay delta and said it looked like we were in Texas! No insult intended.
In Japan they used thousands ground up to build the runway bases at Osaka international airport, then paved over with the usual blacktop. Flew through there 20 years ago and thought it was a neat story.

Yep. Put one on the free listings on Craigslist and had about 5 emails in 5 minutes. Guy drove about 20 minutes to get it that night and begged me not to give it away. I was like, Dude, stop and go to the bathroom at McDonalds if you have to.
