About 5 years ago I was seeing console stereos everywhere for give away prices. I imagine they found their way to the dumpster unfortunately. I was often amazed at the supreme condition of them often with all the paperwork, user manual etc. Even the phonograph platters sometimes had the factory paper cover with directions.
I don't seem to see them as much lately, so perhaps they have cycled through the thrifts as all things do. It's all about people aging and letting go of things that they don't need, or never needed in many cases. I remember the good days when all the 50s-60s TVs and radios were in those places. About a decade ago you could find high end vintage stereo equipment easily. Now it's mostly just junk.
