I just went through a bunch of my favorites and noticed my favorite store to buy classics - www.vintagefunworld.com - is gone. I noticed a few others dead as well. besides ebay, what else is there these days?

I have seen a lot of older games at Rhino Games....if you have one near you.

Flea Markets are hit and miss but sometimes you can score hotness.. check to see if you have a non-GameStop/EB store in your area, those usually still keep the classics in stock as an incentive that the chains don't have. Places for these kinds of things are drying up quick.. so sadly, eBay is probably going to be the primary place for this. You can check the For Trade/For Sale forums at www.digitpress.com as well.

Some Gamecrazy's have a decent amount, though much less than in the past due to having those 3 for $10 classic plastic sales.
