what bargains have you bought?

[swifty_ano]

Guys, some of you may know that I bought a 1996 DR350 last week. I got it cheap because it had gear selecting problems. I bought it really cheap and was willing to pay whatever it cost to fix it.(got it under a thousand and they sell for around $2500) But I pulled it apart last weekend,expecting the worst. Turns out that a bolt had snapped.Bolt circled is the bolt that snapped.

I was stoked, I then went down to suzuki to get the bolt(I thought they would have one in stock) turns out they didn't..Three days later and $8; I put it all together today. Runs perfect....It didn't blow smoke, have engine noises, selected every gear. Its funny how people expect the worst, when it could only be the smallest cheapest thing possible. So I got a good bike for a quarter of the price.

So my question is...What bargains have you picked up like that?
