Join me as I go out thrifting, in search of games and interesting goods at various discount shops! I should probably learn how to play bridge or something.

"I don't need a reason!" You tell 'em, Clint. You tell 'em.

[singletona]

Cops showed up to tell me the couch you were looking at was breaking noise ordinences over here Clint.

In the UK we call thrift stores "Charity shops" and the only thing i ever find in the one's near me are clothes for old ladies and books i will never read.
If there are video games it's usually old copies of FIFA from 10 years ago.
Sad times.

Fun fact: That Bowie Sound + Vision box set came with live video on the obsolete CD-V format.

"they're putting up Christmas trees..." and I immediately thought to myself "it must be Halloween"

That dolphin statue is the bottom half of a glass coffee table hence the suction cups.

From Frozen to Watchman, Clint is on it with the pop culture references today.

[FranktheTank]

All I could think when you put your sweater on the rock was "Hey, that weird guy with the camera on his head that always comes in here just put a sweater on the rock out front." Lmfao

[deanokken]

Clint, if you did not take that Watchman with you, I will poop on your doorstep. Watchmen are rare enough, so seeing a _mega_ watchman is just a steal for 5 bucks!

Those Cerwin-Vega VS-120s are great floorspeakers! Or at least they would be after a little foam replacement and probably crossover capacitor replacement.

[primtones]

You're such a good narrator, I forget that it's voice-over.

[silverbane]

i think that pile of dolphins was actualy the bottom of a glass topped table lol.

[seanvarns]

found your channel by accident. Thanks for the memories and flashbacks. I will subscribe. Keep up the good work and thank you for everything you do and the time you spend to bring us this nostalgic entertainment.

[aaron]

And doesn't have to be gaming related! Love seeing all the cool stuff you find.

My family just brought to me freshly made popcorn made with real butter, I was bout to see whats worth watching and I see a new LRG Thrifts. Life is good.

I love that Zenith stereo system; everything I saw made me extremely happy. B-) Re: portable TVs. My best find was a combination radio/flashlight/TV ... and it was a portable. Being from the late 1960s or early 1970s, it of course only used analog TV signals, but this was exactly the item I needed for a long-term project. Ran me $5.50. :-) Re: "Magic Touch". I saw the same thing - or something similar - that was used on old Mac computers. We're talking about some of the very first Mac computers, too ... only one of the three Macs even used color graphics; the other two were B&W only. The screen let you "touch it" by one of several tools the Touch came with. Unless you have any software at all to actually *use* the Magic Touch hardware, you best just keep your money; third-party support was completely non-existent AFAIK.

Have you ever considered doing an "LGR Viewers Thrift" episode? You could get all of your thrifty viewers to send in clips of their thrifting adventures, and graft them together into one long episode of Thrifty goodness!

That Bowie Sound+Vision sealed set was, along with Dylan’s Biograph, among the earliest hits/rarities multi-CD retrospective sets. Sound+Vision was originally put out on the Rykodisc label, which was among the first independent CD reissue companies. Ryko is known for having some of the finest sound available on early audio CDs. In fact, many of their ‘80s and very early ‘90s releases are sought after nowadays, due to the superb sound quality that is not dynamically compressed or noise-reduced into oblivion, as is the case with the majority of current rock and jazz CD reissues. Getting to my point, the Bowie set won a well-deserved Grammy for its elaborate and artful packaging that employed screen prints on layered plastic sheets, which gave a unique depth effect. Original pressings, complete, in near-mint condition are very rare and can command big bucks on auction sites. A sealed copy might fetch a very tidy sum.

My guess is that that Panda Dryer is designed in/for Asian markets and just happens to have come here to the US (Their website, ezbyonline.com, is not especially helpful, but it seems like it might be a Chinese housewares brand that'd supply Asian markets like H-Mart here in the states).

Not sure about elsewhere in Asia, but I know firsthand that clothes dryers are comparatively super uncommon in Japan and South Korea, so I wouldn't be surprised if some folks were trying to capitalize on the idea of having a dryer tiny enough that it'd fit in a small apartment.

I thought I was the only one who burned drivers to a CD and placed them in a sleeve I'd adhere to the inside of a computer case!!!

Love it LGR!
