My old digital camera's battery door broke and finding a replacement took me almost 8 months of checking thrift stores and online auctions.

I finally found the exact model for parts in a Goodwill in Spokane for $12, which makes me wonder if anyone else has a gadget they've kept alive way past its supposed expiration date?

We're all secretly gadget archaeologists now.

Nah, it's just hoarding with extra steps. Henry855, those old consoles are just taking up space in your closet.

Spot this all the time with old game consoles and flip phones. We're not just keeping stuff, we're trying to save a piece of how things worked. It's a weird kind of personal history.
