Check out your local universities to see what they do with their old office stuff. The university I work for has a sale open to the public one weekend a month where they sell basically anything you could think up. A lot of the stuff is trashy, but I've had friends pick up cool old drafting desks and mid-century style office furniture for dirt cheap. Another friend snagged a bunch of old dental/medical lights from like the 50s that look pretty dope lighting their apt now. Most universities don't really value the stuff and just want to get rid of it, so they ask for basically nothing and seem pretty open to haggling.
