This is where people can get really hung up arguing over the value of things. i.e. you're going to keep the couch, she thinks it's worth $4,000 and you think it's worth $200. Try not to get sucked into that. If both of you can "give" a little more than you're comfortable with you both win.
I completely agree. My XW tended to put a high value on things that didn't have any value at all to me. I let her make her list of things that she wanted, and I pretended to thoroughly scrutinize it, but to me, it was mostly junk I didn't want anyway. I was lucky.
One thing to consider; over the years my wife and I had given my sons various expensive electronics such as computers and gaming consoles. My XW tried to take those (for obvious reasons). I told her that she couldn't decide where those things go because they belong to the boys; the boys needed to decide where those things go. Most of that stuff remained with me.
