Rather than a place I'll mention some situations: 1) Your employer gives/loans you some gear. 2) You are aware of a company that ceases business. They directly sell you gear. 3) You buy equipment coming off lease. Either you have a contact with the leasing company or know the buyout price for the company holding the gear. 4) Similar to (2). An auction of a company that has gone out of business. Problem is that many can be bidding. 5) An equipment reseller. Many acquire their inventory by one of the above methods. 6) eBay auctions. Always a good place to look under "completed auctions" to get an idea of fair value.
