A beautiful desert ironwood box that has a bear carved in the lid. My (now) wife got it for me in a flea market/antique store on vacation early in our relationship!

In an antique store, I found a scale model of a section of the gun decks from the Swedish warship Vasa, in a glass case. (The one that sank less within half an hour in its maiden voyage.) Very professionally made, like you’d see in a museum. I had to have it.

Best thrift store find was a wool jacket for $10. It’s so comfortable, it’s my daily jacket when the weather is cool.

A cool little mechanical scoop-thing, which is perfect for making falafels. Cost me <2€ and it’s awesome. Perfect size and shape and most importantly super easy to clean.

a bunch of records from a retired local DJ ended up scattered in thrift stores around my area; I ended up getting a bunch of really good condition 80s disco and funk 12in singles

• Commodore 128DCR and keyboard.
• Yamaha TX-950 tuner. Just a pretty high-end unit.
• Onkyo CP-1030F turntable; a top-of-range circa 1980 table with most of the gimmicks
• Lian Li PC-V1000 case, basically complete
