My better find so far is too the sadest one. I found one day a box full of old 60's scalex accessoires : switch for A251 paddock, 6 lights for grande bridge, some A206 pit name board, and so on.
After securing this box for 1 euro (!), I've asked the old man who was selling them if it still have the tracks and cars. I told me he has just binned all the rest - including lot of 60's buildings and cars, as he believes this has no value at all.
The funny thing is that one week later I saw this same guy at another boot sale, and he told me he has find out more tracks and accessories. I was very happy untill I saw the stuff he digged out : all TCR tracks and cars, of almost no value.
