On the other hand, I had a garage sale last weekend.
Not one person
interested in the piles of Apple, Commodore, Atari stuff. I mean, if you
guys aren't going to garage sales to buy stuff, you're missing a lot of
deals. Most of the stuff at the Goodwill has an old garage sale sticker
on it.
I'm curious, does anyone really have any luck with garage sales. I've been
hitting them the past couple weeks, to see what I could come up with.
Today I hit over a dozen, what did I find, a Tandy 1000, and a TeleVideo
console. The console would have been OK, but I didn't want to pay what
they wanted since I don't have a use for it. As for the Tandy, correct me
if I'm wrong, but it's a PC clone, which I don't collect.
Basically the only place I seem to have any luck is at Goodwill, or a swap
meet. Although I did find a guy at the local Flea Market that had the
TI/99-4A cartridge I wanted. Problem is, he doesn't deal in computers only
console systems and cartridges.
