I have 2 purchases that are my best buys so far.
The first was a 4 pound lego collection from Austria (Ebay, $36.70) (description
read: 2 kg lego, bricks, plates, blue rails, a motor and a flute), that
contained the entire 118 electronic train (both electronic units, the motor and
the whistle, incl. instruction and box, in near mint shape. To top it off, it
contained the majority of parts for 2 more old train sets, my all time favorite
120 (my first Lego train set), and a complete 122.
Second purchase was a yard sale in Germany (on vacation, my wife nearly killed
me when I returned back to the hotel) 2 years ago where I bought a huge box
containing 160+ monorial track (10 switches, 30 straights, 10 small curves, 30
small straights, rest long curves), for DM 50 (=US $25). I sold half of it in my
bricklink shop for "a slight profit". I kept the rest for my own town layout.
