[QUOTE="joegrizzy, post: 3649224, member: 45524"] i was at an estate sale not too long ago and saw a Master Violet Ray, nice box in good shape, all the electrodes and tubes. i knew *what* it was from books and stuff about Tesla, but i'd never seen one. it was $60, and the place was super busy. needless to say with covid and whatnot, work has been off and on, so i decided $60 wasn't worth it, and I would come back on Sunday to go for half price. went back on sunday and it was gone. looked them up on ebay and whatnot, and definitely couldn't find one anywhere *near* that condition that was actually vintage for anything less than $500. i just like cool quirky stuff, and i honestly don't think i will ever see one of those ever again, in ANY condition. so that was likely my best garage sale "find" but i didn't buy. otherwise it would be Yankee Push Drill that a woman had listed as a "long screwdriver" for $2.00. I snagged that right up, even had the bits inside. should have seen her face when i opened it up; i love finding old stuff. [/QUOTE]
