Can't make this one, buy tons of stuff. Some cool altec mics among other stuff.

A lot of cool stuff there! Nowhere near me though.

Man, there's really a great collection of Royal Doulton figurines and toby jugs there.

Unfortunately, nowadays they're a very hard sell, prices have been way down for the past ten or fifteen years.

Thanks for the heads-up. I got there 30 minutes early Thursday and was #71 in line. Got in about an hour 45 after it started. Altec mics were gone but I doubt they went cheap. Very little actual stereo stuff--mostly telephone equipment and oddball stuff. Lots of parts, but mostly just hardware--screws, bolts, etc. Prices were high on almost everything--I heard lots of complaints from other buyers. I got some interesting stuff, but not much audio. Pair of tube reel-to-reels, old RCA speaker.
