My wife's a saint, but she has little patience for me and my scrounging. I, too, resell things. Been trying to cut back on that, but when I see a real bargain, I have to jump on it. Bought a couple old theater amps once for $150 and sold them for $4900. Picked up a couple Beatles Y&T "Butcher Covers" at a sale for a buck apiece and sold them for $790 and $290 respectively. You never know what you might find at garage sales and junk stores!
