What was the craziest location that you made an audio purchase from?

I thought that this might be a fun topic.

I just purchased speaker cables on Audiogon while on a cruise ship in the Canary Islands How about you?

Was buying all her LPs, and she asked if I liked nice audio gear. Cost me a whopping $40 (yes I told her it was worth way more, but she said I was a nice guy... ) It sits in my living room today, after a cleaning, and re-cap.
