The Best Bargain as a Collector

[vikingraider1]

Carrying on from the below thread has anybody had one of them moments when they discover something really valuable going for pennies?
I had one the other month while going past a 2nd hand shop. My girlfriend noticed some Soviet badges in the window and I went in to have a look. At the back was a Naval infantry uniform, wave-green major's parade uniform, white naval uniform, various berets and caps, helmets badges, shoulder boards and belts etc. all Soviet. A real mountain of gear. The bloke in the shop did not know how much to sell them for as he was not the manager. He was going to be in the shop in three days. They were the longest three days I can tell you. I went in there on the thrid day and he wanted £200 for the lot. There was about £600 worth of stuff altogether and I had to make two trips to get it all out. I resold a lot of it but kept the most valuable bits....ahhhhhh
