Default Where to locate a 302 block or short block

Was hoping to solicit you all on good places to look for a 302 block or short block. Also, is it better to purchase a short block, or just rebuild a used block?

Thanks

eBay, Craigslist, Salvage Yards, Junk Yards, Forums, and buy a new one?

You know just the obvious places.

I currently have two 302 blocks for sale, if you're willing to pay the freight from mass to cali.
