I get email notifications and I haven't heard anything about the grab bag recently. Seems to me it has been several years since they did the last one. I do check the "Refurb Depot" every now-and-then.

 There was a thread here about one of the Grab Bag sales in 2013.

The 2013 thread was mine.  I have never been tempted to repeat my experience with Broadway Limited's bag of mystery parts even if they offered it to me.  But I have learned that the full width SP Daylight diaphragms sell for big bucks -- to dedicated SP fans of which I know none.

When you are sold a mystery box you cannot really say you were cheated.  But I was disappointed.
