Ok, this did not happen to ME, but to a friend of mine:

He'd seen a Collins 32V2 or some such transmitter sitting on the  
loading area of one of those multiple vendor antique malls and located  
the owner.  He made a reasonable offer for the thing and was feeling  
very good when the fellow said "Ok .... but.... you also have to take  
that other big black thing in my yard that's too heavy for me to move."

In the fellow's back yard, pulling back the tarp revealed ...  (are   
you sitting down?)  ...  a KW-1.

"Well, this thing is really heavy, but I'll be glad to take it out of  
here...:
