Always rummage through the junk boxes under the tables (if the dealer lets you). I got 6 under table switch machines for the price of one that way, along with a bag full of detail parts dirt cheap. A lot of these boxes are stuff from estate sales that the guy hasn't really gone through, and will sometimes sell the whole box cheap. Tip: if you find a handful of items of real value in a box of junk, don't pull em out and ask for a price. If the guy's at all knowlegeable he'll want to charge what the items would cost off the shelf. Instead, without indicating what you've found, offer to take the whole box of junk off his hands. Since he may not be sure just what's in it, he may give to you for less than he'd charge just for the items you want.
