decent prices but suspect employees may pre pick best items.

The only TS we have in town is Goodwill. There are others if I want to drive 20 - 30 miles. Last week, I was talking to the person in charge of books and media (I collect records). They used to sell albums (33 1/3) for $1.99 each. Now they are $2.99 - $5.99, with anything good at the higher end. Since she took over media, she looks them all up online and prices them higher if they "are selling for more", as she put it. Hardcover books are now $5.99 - $8.99. I told her that I know a couple of book collectors / dealers and they refuse to come in. Her response: "Good, I don't want them in here. I'm not here to price books low so they can resell them on eBay for a big profit." If she sees someone looking books up online for prices, she'll tell them to leave.
I can't wait for the local warm weather "garage sale" to start, where I get albums for $1 and 45's are 3 / $1. Once the temperature gets above 50 and stays there...
