I thought you'd be able to take the appliances on the landfill lot too. Also repaired them but can't take them home.
Sim can "dive for deals" and get tables, couches, etc. But, when it comes to taking the appliances, tvs, radios on the lot, the sim can't take them.
I can take anything home I want from the dumpster. Also if you sell directly from the inventory you get new value price for it. A which point I buy the same item I any color I want as if I'd fixed it up myself. I do check before selling as some items aren't available for purchase and are reward for dumpster diving. I've gotten 2 high end microwaves, high end stove and a rabbit ear tv and lots of furniture including beds
The pricing issue is separate, but there are some discrepancies with that too. What this thread is talking about are the items townies are dropping off at the landfill lots - not the items you can get out of the dumpsters.
