I personally never found anything there worth having at a decent price.
I just stopped going. I used to work by there. They had several way
outdated whole systems priced at $350. That was back in the P-I/P-II
days. I did look on the 3rd floor and just found jumbles of cables.
Maybe it has changed or maybe I just went at the wrong time.
