Nought, Zero, or...?

Hello guys,

I'm preparing a detailed item's chart for the moving Company which is going to pick my stuff up.

It's not a business context, I'm a private person and I'm going to value all the singular stuff that I'm shipping.
Some of those stuff are old, out of production but they are mine and I don't want to throw them away!

So, the guy of the Company suggested me to write "Zero". The lady of the Italian Consulate suggested writing "Used".

I've just found "nought" in terms of "something with no economical value".

Is there some of you guys, who can suggest me which definition works better in this case?

Thank you all!
(please, correct my EN!)

You could also use nominal. Mind you if it goes footsy you won't get anything substantial from the insurers...

GF..

You have to ask for cover:- and read the small print.

In English we refer to items that have no monetary value but are dear to us as having 'sentimental value'.

sentimental value noun
The value of an object deriving from personal or emotional associations rather than material worth: she lost several pieces of jewellery which were of sentimental value

Yes, 'nominal value' is a useful expression.

Just because something is out of production does not mean it has no value - consider Fabergé eggs for example. Wikipedia - The House of Fabergé made about 50 eggs, of which 43 have survived.

I think you need to give us some examples.

I won't get anything substantial from the insurers, anyway.
One of them literally told me that "in case something will be lost, they have to ask for a technical survey AFTER you will open a case against the Company". ...I thought Italy was famous for these kind of issues but It looks like the entire World has the same issues...

BTW, I will read the small print!! Thank you GF!

For example:
1 Alarm Clock (Radio): it was around 20 bucks when I bought it, a couple of years ago...
or, 5 Bathroom towels, a carpet...
...all these kind of "home-items", you know...
There is no monetary value 👁 Smile :)


So, I'm going to fill the fields with "nominal".

Thank you so much!
