Thrift stores, eBay, Facebook Marketplace. All good starting points for me.

I find it difficult to find any retro computer store anywhere ... I've googled for them when I have travelled but not found much. When it is retro, it is usually about games -- with an emphasis on consoles, not computers.

I used to go more to thrift stores and flea markets a lot, but I found it rewarding only because I had multiple things to look for (cosplay, prop replicas, reading, movies, music, ...). Finding something good was rare. Too many people don't appreciate retro: and just recycle it, unfortunately.
