How about a nice little question about local computer parts?

[turil.livejournal.com]

I have to get a new power cable/adapter thing for my iBook G4 (it's the cable thing with the white square adapter and a round plug). I emailed the Mac repair person recommended a couple of years ago in this community, but never got a response. Any other suggestions for where to get used computer parts (especially Mac) in the Somerville area?

(Yes, I know about the MIT Flea, but I don't think I'll be able to make it there this month. Also, they charge admission, which might add too much extra cost to this one small thing I need than I can really afford right now.)

Thanks in advance!

(Oh, and yes, I still technically live in Maine, but I have to be in Somerville next week for a bit.)

I recommend Ebay. Buy only from people in the USA if possible and people with 99+% approval ratings - as close to 100% as possible. Read the negative comments. See if they respond to them. I've never had a problem with someone on Ebay with a 99%+ rating who responds to their negative ratings.
