      @Inorganic this is an epic chest. I scored this 1940s roll cab on Craigslist a few years back for $100, it was a complete mess when I got it, the drawers were coated in solidified grease mixed with random hardware and metal shavings.

        @SourPower solid score. Love the beat downs and patina that box has received over the years

          Not a score but a near miss.
          Wife saw this case but thankfully it was already marked sold
          I would 100% had her buy this for $40

          To clarify i do not now, or in the future itend to, own an actuall harp to put in this case but I still would have wanted it.

              @Inorganic it's not my place to question the thrift spirits and what they choose to put forth

                    a few gems i've picked up over the past week or so:

                    • i found a matchy matchy bottom box for my snap-on tool box
                    • 70s remake of the famed LC4 lounger (I need to weld up a base)

                                Getting Red Wing boots from the thrift is wild. The WASP t shirt brings back some memories, I saw them at Monsters of Rock (now Download) in 1992 and they were terrible.

                                    @NickD I'm not typically a boot guy other than subtle Chelsea's or basic docs but they were $30 (which is actually pretty high for me at a thrift store since I usually wince at anything over the $10-15 price point) for near new usa made so i couldn't pass them up
