Totally agree with Dan, it's easy to get discouraged during lengthy dry spells. Which is why I will mix it up with garage sales and thrift shops as well. But it's worth it for me as I've found some of the top items in my collection at antique malls and flea markets. I went out for a while today and found a foam football signed by Franco Harris for $3. The booth owner had no clue who signed the ball.
