It really is amazing what you can find - there was once an elaborate, decorative Victorian bird cage; almost as soon as I saw it, figured out how to get it home, and was about to call ‘dibs’, a woman walked up with the Store Manager and put a ‘sold’ sign on it. She got it for $100: Very like this one, that’s going for almost $1300 on ebay:
