Over the past year thrift store finds have been mostly cookbooks and a couple high-end CD players.
The lone cycling exception to that was a bag of Suntour ARX stuff for $10.
The conjecture about the back room has merit; I've checked back on donations to find they that didn't make it out to the showroom.
+1 I have another addiction for vintage stereo gear. I picked up a set of 1970s Bose 901s, a set of Mackey monitors and most recently a late 1970s Yamaha receiver, with nice wood case. Kept the receiver, the rest moved to new homes.

i like finding deals, they don't have to be bikes. Musical instruments, clothing, electronics, books, tools or whatever. Looking for just bikes is too discouraging. Sold a cookbook last year for $250. That was sweet.
