Be very careful. My gut reaction is that someone on the inside has put
those out with the intention of going back for them. I've heard that this
is fairly common at retail stores e.g. store employees will stash good
stuff in the dumpsters under the guise of throwing out defective returns.
But hey. Great find :-)
