Sorry, just saw this. I'm from PDX and used to volunteer often at Free Geek. Their little tech shop is often selling cool retro bits 'n pieces, though in the past few years they've transitioned towards mostly older (but not very interesting) PCs running Ubuntu that they sell in the sub-$200 range. I still drop by occasionally to see if anything particularly interesting is kickin' around. Anyway, if you're looking for a genuine "we sell really really old electronics" place, they are it - their business is recycling and repurposing ancient tech, and it's a mostly volunteer-run nonprofit, so there's really no motive for them to charge you anything more than utterly dirt-cheap prices.

*edit* upon looking @ their site...jackpot! I was more right than I thought I was.

Here are a couple I lurk at:

My friend scored 2 SE/30s and I collected most of my Commodore gear in that way. It is habit forming and there is a real danger of accumulating way too much worthless stuff, so take care that you don't accidentally un-kid-proof your house.

I'm in the Portland, OR, USA area and am just searching for info. if anyone knows of places to look around there for old stuff like that, be it a good will that always has ancient stuff like that, or a good flea market, or any other resource, that would be awesome. alternately, if you or someone you know in that area wants to sell on the cheap, let me know.

I know these computers can go for a couple hundo on ebay, but I don't need this thing to run. it would be cool, great even, but its not necessary.
