My theory around here at least is that the economy has sucked for so long that pickers that used to just go for shoes, or toys, or electronics, etc, are now grabbing anything they can make a buck on, including bikes. Many are not bike savvy, so they will grab good bikes and junk. I've bought bikes from many of them.
The good news is I continue to find other items at thrift stores that can build my bike/hobby kitty to be used on keeper items.
