We just finished repainting our apartment and I bought too much paint. I've lived in other cities which have had building-materials co-ops, where people could donate surplus materials for a tax deductions, and the co-op sold the supplies at discount prices. Does anyone know if that exists in NYC?
Alternatively, I've got extra gallons of Benjamin Moore laytex in eggshell finish, 2109-50 through 2109-70. I bought them at Pintchik within the past 6 weeks, and they've never been opened. The colors are attractive purple/brown/grays. Normally, they'd be about $35/gallon, but I'll sell them for $10, just to get them out of the apartment. If you're interested, leave a note with an email address here.

I'd suggest Craig's List or Freecycle if you don't get action here.

You might be able to get a tax deduction if you donate the paint to Materials for the Arts: http://www.mfta.org/.
