I'm sure all of the thrift stores in Denver are picked bone dry by now.
Man, the golden age of the thrift store/basement/dumpster find is long gone. Craig's List is hit or miss. Mostly miss. It's sort of a dumping ground for failed conversions or bad stuff in general. There
are some good things on there like this Makino track bike, but did you catch the price on that one?
