When its good at Fry's, its often great, but day to day I try every place
else first. Fry's is a kind of Nerd Disneyland, its got a lot of space and
a lot of stuff, and frequently the only place you could be pretty sure of
finding 4 out of 5 odd items, but tack on to that long long checkout lines,
employees that may or may not have a clue, ie everybody from Radio Shack
shrugs, to people smart enough to feed you a total line of baloney and make
it sound real.

Best thing I can think of for collectors are the swapmeets, ACP, TRW, and
Cal Poly Pomona. ACP (6/15, 7/27), Cal Poly 3rd Sat of month, TRW last Sat
of month.

Scrap places used to be fun, but I am about a year out of the loop, and
places have changed.
