well i was delivering computer parts around town and i was near one of the
regular thrift stores i goto. outside they sometimes sell off stuff cheap.
they had a bin of macs so i bought the entire thing. the lady said they
camein that morning and they had JUST put em out for sale... i was the first
to spot them. this was the middle of the day too.
