I've also been wondering about this. I would really like to get my hands on an Amiga, or maybe some type of older Mac. Though for me, I'm more concerned about how much it would cost than where to get it. Before the 2000s my family wasn't really making enough money to buy consumer electronics, so even looking through old boxes in my own house is basically useless, unless you consider a notebook running windows XP 'retro'.

Ah, to clarify I mean when it comes to a retro computer like an Amiga or Mac, lots of collectors are on the hunt for them so, prices go up.

Where to buy retrocomputers? — This might sound like a silly question, but where would you start looking to buy retrocomputers? I suppose there are things for sale on the internet, but not everything you can think of is actually as available as "modern" products seem. What if I want a specific model of a 386... where do you all go to find something like that? Or do you have to have been retrocomputing since back then? feel kinda dumb here since I have (confession time) actually thown out old...
