Dumb Question

[Brian Kelsay]

I work real close to this place.  It's called Surplus Exchange.  I have
never seen the deals there that people speak of.  I think you have to spend
lots of time on the third floor digging through boxes to find the cool
stuff.  It's just off the 12th St. bridge if we are talking about the same
place.

If you don't mind the dirve there is some old warehouses in the bottoms
downtown and they have some really cheao stuff. It looks like it is mofia
run and not a place to go at night but they have really cheap stuff and they
usually don't bug you about what you want.
Just a thought..
