What county are you looking to buy/build in? That largely determines the answer to your question.

[LEWELYN]

any country. and i am from philippines. so i really need cheap parts 

[Canada EH]

try ebay they got lots of cheap parts on there

if not then in the back alleys of computer stores and computer repair stores

or electronics recycle bins

or electronics recycling facilities

or old shit from friends and family

its good to know a guy who works for a big company in their IT department.

Shipping and import tax drive up prices. Unfortunately, I don't know of any Philippine second-hand purchasing sites. Also, for future reference, people who reply to your posts won't see your reply unless you @ them (@LEWELYN) or quote them (like I did above).

Are those junk shops like bums just skimming from the landfill?
