We're not really intending to start a collection of BB Guns, but you start shoving them in the corner of the Sorting Room and then someone donates a rifle rack, and then, well...

You're Gonna Shoot Your Eye Out, Kid
You would think that with all these quality working BB Guns coming through the Junk Store month after month I would be a better marksman, but I only hit the customers in the face, like, 20% of the time.

Hans 2014
It's post number 500 for the Tales from the Junk Store blog! And what better way to celebrate than by partying with our old friend Hans. When we last checked in with Hans, he was hoarding ladies' undergarments over by the water cooler. But now I can't seem to find him anywhere.
Wait. Look up.
There's Hans. That rascal somehow got up on top of the sorting room rolling door and is now perched like a gargoyle on PCP. I see he still is sporting those leather chaps. Looks like his collection of donated underwear is going strong, too.

Steingraf Cat Fur Bandages
It's time to break out the big guns. The heavy hitters. The truly amazing and fucked-up donations that refuse to be ignored. The kinds of items I immediately think of when I am asked, "What's the craziest thing that's ever been donated?"
Here you go... the Steingraf Katzenfell Bandagen.
That's right. It's some sort of garment wrapping made of a house cat pelt. And the picture on the box is of a kitten that looks pretty frightened. Those wacky Germans and their cat furs.

Bad Ass Cassette Players
We've had some impressive audio cassette players come through the Junk Store recently. Like this badass Tiffen Pro-Dissolve player that comes in its own hardcase with built-in speaker. Not bad.
Or how about this vintage Sankyo stereo cassette deck with all kinds of knobs and faders and shit. Niiice.
Ok, I just did about 5 seconds of research and I see the Tiffen is a slide-projector controller. However, I'm choosing to still regard it as a bad ass cassette deck.
