Please don't get me wrong - I have pulled many gems 'off the curb' or out of dumpsters, including an Edison Home 3-minute cylinder machine, a Dynaco ST35 & FM3 and much more. And I am not above salvaging parts, either. But I will not go diving for a random bit of electronics when I know that I will be able to find a genuine part at a small cost that is both new and warranted.

I remember back when Digi-Key advertised in the back of Electronics
Illustrated and Popular Electronics, alongside Poly Paks and Jameco.
 
Maybe they remember their hobbyist roots.
