I've had a very quiet sell week as well. Not sure if it's my inventory or what.
Here are my two best picks of the weekend. The typewriter came form an estate and the furnace door/damper came from a garage sale.
Paid $10. One of the keys is disconnected so I have to fix that. These go for $140 consistently.

Paid $5. NOt sure what I can get, but saw a few going for $50 or so.

No pictures but I also picked up about 50 reels of reel to reel magnetic audio tape. All but four reels were used. The four sealed reels go for $20 a reel and the used stuff sells very well. I expect to get about $3-$4 per reel. Paid $5 for the whole group.

Weekend here in Alberta dropped to a couple degrees above 0 the whole weekend so another fail.
BUT, i did hit some antique shops and goodwill outlets on Sunday.
Picked up a perfectly working Playstation 1 (the full size), with two controllers (one blue see through and one green see through) and all the necessary cords - 15$
XBOX Generation 1 with one controller and all necessary cords - 25$
ANDDDDD, for the contest portion, id like to do this, we can track our best finds of the season, and at the end we vote for the best find of the summer. We have had this thread running now for a long time, its always the same group of us, so im sure we will use the honour system in our finds. Ill come up with a prize of some sort. Might as well make it a little competitive for the summer :)
So, as of right now, tell me your best find so far here on the thread, then whenever you top it with a better find, just repost. We will see how this works out :)

So myself, the wife and the kids went to Easter breakfast with my dad today and the we decided to go out "hunting"...LOL
So our first stop was the local thrift store and I spent a grand total of: Approximately $15
Any info on any of this would be great, Ive looked some of it up and have a pretty good idea what it goes for but still anything you "experts" can throw out would be great.
Ralph Lauren Dress Shirt: not sure if this is really worth anything but for .99 cents I figured what the heck!
Mens Size Large
Munsingwear Hawaiin Shirt Mens Size X-Large
Drew Brees Reebok Jersey Size Youth X-Large (Is this one I can list as authentic ? Honestly don't know :o)
Vintage Florida Gators Starter Jacket Size Mens Large
Vintage Sears Talking Computron
Vintage Magnajector in Original box with instructions - small piece broke off but it still works and the piece that broke off is fixable but don't know if I should fix it as it will be noticeable

So after the thrift store we managed to find the one yard sale around on Easter day....LOL, and they had some descent WWE wrestling stuff so for a grand total of: $27
55 Loose action figures + accessories (ladder, stretcher, 3 steel chairs, trash can, ring bell, etc...)
2 action figures still in the original package, cards are not mint but I would say near mint
WWE boom box (AM, FM, CD), antenna is still there (ive found this to be a problem with them always missing) and works great
