Lost and Found sale... When is it?
Will there be one this year? Is it an announced thing, or does it just...happen?
Saw the lost and found sale thread last year and completely missed it :(

Isabel says thanks to hellonewyork for this post.

There were some good ones that sold for 40-50.

$105 for a used supercycle 1800 was definitely too much though, they sell them for $99 at CanTire.

Way to go to the idiot that started this thread - you let EVERYBODY know. I heard the lost and found sale was ridiculous and the hoarders were rampant.

All that we can do now is hope everyone forgets about it again by next year.

  • A citizen eco-drive watch,
  • a skagen watch (both worth around $200... I'm really big on watches)
  • an iPod touch (8 gb, 3rd gen).
  • Oh, and a calculator.

Grand total - $40
