    One of my "rules" says: buy toys from a jewelry dealer and jewelry from a toy dealer. It can be others, but I look for people who have a good reputation in their own area who are looking to unload something they don't know much about.

    I prefer to be early bird in estate sales or sometimes go to habitat for humanity or Goodwill. Sometimes there is unbelivable surprise.

    Usually about 3 days a week at thrifts. (goodwill/salvation army/savers/couple other mega-thrifts/a few smaller local charity shops) Hitting up 2 or 3 each time. I have a stable of about 9 thrifts total that I hit up between the area near my office and then the area near my home - and a few in-between.
