You can't beat craigslist for buy or sell. If you live in large metro area there is constant flow of good items. I like because I just drive over with cash and talk with seller. Often, you can get seller to reduce price when you are person to person.
Ignore the price when you see it. When you get a response from seller you ask back, if he/she will consider an offer. If so you can get to a sales price you might like. As long as you haven't taken your time or created any expense you have nothing to lose by trying. If you don't like the price, and the seller is stubborn about the price when you visit you are generally better off not to take it any further. Also...if the seller won't talk to you on the phone, forget it.
If you don't live in large metro area you just have to follow craigslist on a daily basis and be patient. Patient, because it may be several weeks before what you want shows up.

I recently saw a "New" pr40 on Craigslist go for around 140 bucks... I think we will see more and more of these mics on the market for very inexpensive prices due to people podfadding :)

podfadding... Now I like that one! Actually, the phenomenon is quite accurate and is one of the reasons why I'm taking so much time in choosing my gear.
Currently, there isn't anything I've purchased that I can't use 'generically' here on my Mac. I use Dragon Dictate extensively as well as Skype, so my RE20, boom arm, and USB interface will still be useful if I happen to lose the fizz.
