freebird, I must admit I have had some luck with charity shops in the past. Back when a relative was collecting WW2 militaria, I walked into a Lifeline store one day and there in font of my eyes was an entire WW2 uniform in near mint condition with a $5 tag hanging on it. I can tell you I wasted no time grabbing it off the rack and driving home feeling like I had just won the lottery! My relative asked "So how much do I owe you?". He half expected I had been ripped off. I said 5 bucks and he almost dropped dead!
