Here in San Diego....if it's BIG you want, then you can EASILY find it by going to ANY thrift store....and you'll find them by accident if you go down alleys.

I collect SMALL....and those don't come around too much, and they have usually been abused because they are portable, batteries left in 'em...antennas broken off, ALL the accessories gone, etc

I would think big consoles were EASY to get ahold of if you want them. What pisses me off around HERE in San Diego....is a thrift store will have a couple consoles I really want to look at, but they'll sit a BIG 32" JVC set on top of it with a $15 price tag on it. Some set I have absolutely effing NO interest to look at...and KEEP me from looking at the Magnavox console underneath it.....EFFFF!!!

</soapbox>

:-P
