For local shopping, as opposed to online shopping, it depends a lot on where you are. "Out in the sticks" may not be a bad thing. Last summer I bought a 634A for about $10 in an Antique Shoppe. But that was in the midwest, I think northern Indiana, where the terrible state of the economy has hit particularly hard and entire towns seem to be dying.
If you can get out, check a few of the small shops.
