Just a few items. A couple of the cameras I wanted were sold but the F100 was still for sale - I’m sure it was a good deal but I didn’t want to pay $170 for it. The Olympus I wanted was $325, so I passed on that one as well.
Here are pictures of some of the stuff I didn’t buy. I may come back, especially for the alcohol and some other stuff like detailing stuff from Griot’s Garage. Given the posters and hats, it appears that the guy was a BMW enthusiast.

Zactly. When I’m in Burbank I can pick up all sorts of old issues for 50 cents IIRC over at Autobooks/Aerobooks.
I figure that I’ll go back Sunday and offer $5/box.

I had one just like it, but I gave it (and several dozen other computers) away for free when I moved 8 years ago. I still have some of the computers I kept, like a PowetBook G4 17" and a maxed-out dual 1.8GHz PowerMac G4, that I have not fired up once in all these years. And the PowerMac G5? It’s essentially a table at this point. The G4 is probably only worth its scrap weight - the copper heatsink in that thing is massive ...

I frequent estate sales and the one of the local companies tries to charge $2 for old open cans of paint .

Estate sales are, typically, a joke when it comes to pricing things. I help at my churches annual
rummage sale. Last year we cleared over $20,000. We price stuff cheap. Magazines like those pictured above, maybe $
0.20 a piece. All those cleaners, if they are full, $0
.50, maybe $1.00 if unopened. Dishes, pot/pans, crock pots, etc. $1.00 - $10.00 max. We sell who china dish sets for less than $50.00, because the kids just don’t want mom’s old china anymore.

Hold up, what’s that Radioshack computer and why is it not in your possession
now?

I’ve been getting away from the classic computers. I really don’t have the space to keep them, and if I want the experience I can usually do it better in software. About 5 years ago I recieved a slightly broken iMac G4 20" for free and fixed it. After playing around with it for a couple of months I didn’t know what to do with it, and instead of breaking it down and doing something weird with it, like turning it into a TV, I decided to pass it along to someone else for the same price I paid for it.
