+save2600 Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 (edited) WOW! That's a helluva thrift store you have out there! I'd definitely be tempted to pick up that ST, the monitors and some of the A8 goodies... REALLY hate to see some of that stuff stacked though.

amiman99 Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 It's been awhile since I found anything retro in my local Thrift / Goodwill stores. Things are getting rarer everyday... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scooter83 Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 If I was close I'd get the monitors and the c64. Sigh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ianoid Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 I would have bought all of it out of sheer greed and fear that it would be my last awesome computer score ever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kyle22 Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 What are you planning on picking up? I am also planning on going next Saturday. How about if I PayPal you to pick me up a 1200XL, or two. Shipping shouldn't be too bad using the cheapest way which I believe is USPS. -K Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jess Ragan Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 Geez, a 1200XL for $5 to $10 is super tempting. I just wish I had the money! Hell, I just wish I had that 65XE I had back in Arizona... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jess Ragan Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 Are you in the area of the thrift store that has these? Nah, I'm a state away. C'est la vie, I guess! Would love to get my 65XE back. I really ought to ask my aunt about it, although it's been fifteen years and there's a good chance it's resting under a landfill somewhere in AZ.

Storycrafter Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 Orpheuswaking, thanks for the update. If that's all that's left from the original find, then I am no longer planning to head out there. Best of luck to anyone else still contemplating a drive.
