I buy from Payless Computers (http://www.paylesscomputers.com/).  The owner, 
Dave, is a good guy and carries quality computers and parts.  I've been 
getting parts from him since about 1995 and never had any problems.  I 
trust his judgement.  I built a system for my brother back in 1999 with 
parts from Dave and he is still using it.  My brother has never had a 
problem with the computer due to poor equipment and is still satisfied with 
it.

One thing I've noticed is Payless Computers is usually cheaper than the cost 
of parts and shipping off of Price Watch.  And, I don't have to wait for 
the parts to arive.
