I think it's a combination of the two.
I could have acquired Cabana Beach at the
Menlo Park FAO for a mere $34.99! The
Fifth Avenue store, however, didn't have
anything *too* ancient (save a few very late
model Pirates sets).
I did find some really old things at little toy
stores, though--a cache of those BT-II poly
bags and some other stuff.
