>go on eBay and they cost $100

What we have here is a problem of the right customers not being connected with the products that they want.

There's a local antiques / salvage / thrift store in my town, basically like the place from American Pickers. If there's something you want and they don't have, you can sign up and they'll call you when they find one. I asked about CRT monitors, and the guy was surprised that I wanted one and he said they throw them out and they might actually have a few in the sorting room. I wrote my name down and they're supposed to call when they find something, and it'll probably be dirt cheap.

It makes me sad that people are throwing these things away instead of finding homes for them. It makes me sadder still when I think of all the special brand-specific ones from companies like Commodore and Apple that are probably pulverized in a landfill instead of in someone's collection.
