I do this a lot. newegg is not bad, as others have mentioned. My current 
favorite is mwave.com - they have a lot of refurb and closeout stuff I check 
on all the time - some pretty incredible deals sometimes - recently I picked 
up a couple of Shuttle MB's with 865 chipsets, 5 PCI slots, AGP, multi USB 
headers, IEEE1394 headers, SATA and SATA RAID built in and more, for $25/ea.
advanced2000.com is a local supplier in the Washington, DC area that's also 
got some amazing deals on occasion - I've never been burned by them in over 7 
years - they've got a barebones on their frontpage today for $79!
