If you don't need something in such good shape that it qualifies as
living room furniture, I've found that the best source is government
auctions. The drawbacks include the fact that auction goods vary from
auction to auction, and may not be held in your proximity. But, I've gotten
some great 19" racks for $10, including ergonomic tilting racks (on casters
no less). Depending on the contents of the auction, you can find great
test equipment there, too.
I never try to sell racks because of the $$ involved in long-distance
shipping.
Otherwise, SESCOM, who advertises in Radio Electronics, is the cheapest
source I've found for new items.
If you're interested in gov't auction info (free), e-mail me. I typed
some contact info up.
