How about Salvation Army thrift stores?

Occasionally, I go "junk sailing" (sic). There are a cluster of
thrift stores around Canoga Park, quite a few along Main Street
in Ventura, and still more in Santa Barbara. (Rich people's junk!
Whoo-hoo).

Another "junk store trail" is via the Inland Empire, hitting
stores in Covina, Azusa, Pomona, La Verne, Fontana and Riverside.

Sometimes the most "classic" thing in these stores is an old
8-track compact stereo that doesn't work. But what you can
find may surprise you. I found an old Commodore Pet (with the
tiny keyboard) in one of these places (but they wanted way too
much--like $60...)
