Used power supply

Would anyone know where I could find used power supply’s? This is the final component I need to finish my gaming PC. I Wish I didn’t have to go second hand but, I have my first child on the way. And with the pandemic raging on funds are very tight, and I’m just looking to get this thing finished before I won’t have the time/money to be able to anymore. I just need something reliable, and powerful enough to power my rig. I think 500-550W should suffice. I will be running a i7-7700 and a GTX 1070 I scavenged from my friends old pre-build. Thank you in advance. And best wishes during these hard times.

I'd prefer to stay under $150

I personally recommend this : https://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/be-quiet-straight-power-11-550w-platinum

or this one, https://www.amazon.com/CORSAIR-RM550x-Certified-Modular-Supply/dp/B079HGL413 it has very long warranty iirc, longer than bq one.

No matter how many times I copy the link it copies as the one linking to 650w psu, not 550,not sure what's the issue here.
