Shopping in Texas?

[Gorcho]

Does anyone know of any good discount, surplus, or salvage shops in the Dallas-Fort Worth area that sell vintage (or even not-so-vintage, but close) hardware?

I have been to the Goodwill Computer Works in Fort Worth, and there does not seem to be much there. I found a store called Electronic Discount Sales in Arlington that is pretty good, but I was hoping to find a few more options!

Thanks!

I've never been (although I've always wanted to go) but I hear "First Saturday" used to be a great spot for that (they also have Third Saturday now also (although the best stuff is Friday night during the setup).

Besides that I'm not sure about that area specifically.

You've got all the good places identified. I was in that area for 2 years and between Electronic Discount and First/Third Saturday, there's a whole lot of nothin' out there.

Now, if you're looking for new stuff, FRY'S is the place to be.

If you are willing to travel, Canton days is great. Just google it, it will tell ya. Also, in longview(1-2 hours from canton) is a great place for that stuff. There is a place named George's Pawn Shop that is fantastic. The local goodwills are nice as well. There is also a few wholesale PC shops there with TONS of old and new stuff.

Thanks for the help--I appreciate it. This gives me some good places to start.
