Sadly, the trend I've posted about before
in past years continues and is accelerating.
I can count on my fingers the number people
in the entire fest who had what I call
"dirty old boxes" full of old parts.

I've noticed another phenomenon. Since the antique value of this
'old junk' has increased. Some sellers are cleaning off parts from the
junk box and selling it at a premium price. This is especially true
for command set parts.
