TV's at the thrift stores

That's true.. They price them, they don't sell it goes to the dumpster.. Most Goodwills around here usually don't test stuff, as most of the VCRS at one of them have a price marked $24.99, in most cases when I test one, they end up having an issue.. And I wonder why they have a bigger electronics section at that one, when I told the manager that the other Goodwills sell these things for $4.99. His comment was well we specialize more in electronics than the other Goodwills, I commented back, NO you have your electronics marked too high, they're not selling.. Boy they hate to argue.. You would think some places would mark the prices at a price to sell as mentioned above.. Instead of lowering them and when they don't sell, they just go to the dumpster... I think they do this on purpose..

One of the thrifts around here I would go in there once a week, and I would always buy a certain house hold item worth $5-$10 from the early 80s (Something else I collect) After a while they caught on and thought they were worth more than what they were selling them for, well they started marking the prices a ridicules $50.. I got into a big argument with the sales person in the department, I went to the GM and fixed that one..

Keep in mind, if they see you going to these places and buying alot of the same thing, they will think you're making money somehow and mark prices up really high
