Default Any good places to buy used computer components?

Hello. Looking at upgrading one of my PCs from a 1.8Ghz P4 to a 3.06Ghz P4 FSB533 Socket 478.

Question is, it appears that all you can buy these days on-line are newer CPUs. Apart from E-bay, can anyone recommend an on-line store to buy a P4 Socket 478 3.06ghz (533 FSB) CPU?

Thanks.

I've used scan a couple of times, never had any problems and always a quick service.

Doesn't look as though you can buy on-line.

Any more recommendations?
