There is also EQ, the founder of which I just met this past weekend. He has 
technology garage sales at his house at River and Islington more or less every 
Saturday, and also has a business in Guelph.

The website is www.eq-trm.com, but don't be put off by the site; he admits 
that web stuff is NOT his forte. I spent an hour digging around his garage on 
Saturday, and in addition to the normal tech stuff (computers and computer 
related) he also has a BIG selection of pneumatics, optics and industrial 
gear.

I'd certainly give him a call or try to stop by his yard sales. There's LOTS 
of good stuff there for techie types.
