Favorite Peaces and parts shops

Any one know of any peaces and parts shops that sell used parts.

There use to be one in Nashville TN that’s like a 3 hour drive from me that had everything from full decked out Macs to the smallest parts like mouse balls.

I been trying to find places like this on the web but other then random chance Ebay items there doesn’t seem to be anything. This seems odd to me as there are enough tinkerers like me and full fledged modifying gurus like some of you out there that there has to be some one selling bits and peaces.

i'm not looking for anything inparticular at the moment but I love having some where to go for this stuff when I do get one of those “hay wouldn’t it be cool to “ moments

Shrieve Systems has everything. Or did have.

Fun place to visit. They were about 5 minutes from my house near Lockheed. They really do have oddball computer stuff and hard-to-find items. You could spend hours there just looking through all that crap.
