Well, the most meaningful bargain that I ever scored was my zoom lens for my pro camera. A 75-200mm for $80 bucks! Used once! At the time, that lens would have easily cost me anywhere from $200-$300 dollars! May not sound much, but for a 21 year old who was just started her photography career, that was like a million dollars to spend on camera gear (and luckily I got the camera w/a 35-80mm lens as a birthday present).
