Prices get almost as high as eBay. I recently watched a ameritron solid state amp and Mfj manual antenna tuner along with an old shure desk microphone. Sell for almost $800 dollars plus shipping. If it all works perfectly that I guess that’s not a bad deal. But spending big bucks on goodwill is taking a huge risk. It’s a flip of the coin if it works properly or not. I feel like sometimes there are some very disappointed people out there when they plug in there $300 dollar goodwill radio they just got in the mail, and all it does is pop the fuse in there power cord.
yea. i got some cool stuff from there for REAL prices in the beginning. now all the ebay style idiots have shown up there and driven prices up.
Makes me think the box is worth more than the radio inside it?
Does make me wonder what it would cost to counterfeit original shipping cartons for 70s CB radios?

I have only bought a radio related product from Goodwill online one time and never again. I needed a power supply for one of my amps. Bought it for around 60$ for a regulated 20 amp supply. Those people put that amp in a box 2 1/2 times it's size with only 3 flat pieces of paper. Didn't work out
If I were closer to you I'd be all over it but it's hard to make the time for traveling 3.5 hrs one way.Thinking about dropping my Browning off at the local outlet. It’s just a mile down the road. I think a lot of CB’ers shop there. One lucky one will make the find of a lifetime.
Is it one of the consignment joints?
I don’t think they do consignments. I believe they only sell donated items. Will let you know if I decide to donate it to them.
I worked at Goodwill – why you can never find decent bargains in store anymore
AS thrifting grows in popularity, you might assume the reason there are no good picks at your local Goodwill is related to how early you go, or even the day of the week. Well, a supposed ex-employe…
