I'm a yard sale junkie myself, so my "scrap" purchases are just like getting cotton candy at the fair. But I did land a big ole Tektronix oscilliscope for $10, plus about 30 WWF rubber dolls from the mid '80's for $20. Also got about 400+ sq ft. of interlocking foam mat for my workspace for $80 (stack 6' high). Sold my $2 IBM PS/2 for $99 on ebay. Also got 6 early '90's Star Trek phaser toys at auction currently bid at $59 (I only paid $2). Every week its another bargain if you can sniff a good deal. Keep on looking!
