Visited a micro center and saw $400 worth of keycaps just sitting loose in a bin

I was at the Micro Center in Dallas last weekend and spotted this giant bin of random keycaps labeled 'mystery grab bag' for $20 each. Curious, I dug through it and found a full GMK set mixed in with some weird blank DSA caps. Has anyone else ever scored a crazy deal like that from a mystery bin?

No way, a whole GMK set for twenty bucks?

Did you actually pull that GMK set out of the bin and buy it? Honestly, that's the kind of find that makes me check every single loose cap bin I see now. Tbh, most of those mystery bags are just filled with leftover cheap stock nobody wanted, but when you score something like that it feels like winning the lottery. Ngl, I've had some decent luck with those bins too. I found a full set of SA keycaps once for $15, just mixed in with a bunch of broken stems and random blanks. It's totally worth the time to dig through, especially if you have patience and don't mind sorting through a pile of junk.
