eBay. I tend to avoid Mac specific sections. People seem to be a little
bit greedy in those sections. So, usually, when I'm looking for a drive
or something like that, I will go in the PC section, where there are
far, far more choices.
I often use the search function because people don't always list their
items where they should be. For instance, this Panasonic CD-ROM drive
was found in the Computers:Laptop:Accessories:General. I remember I was
using a search criteria like "SCSI portable CD". I might have added a
few exclusions to keep the found items list small, but that's pretty
much it.
