Where to buy a Selectric?

  I'm looking to get a nice IBM Selectric typewriter - for typewriter,
not computer console, use.  Not too picky as to typeball etc., but
if someone wants to tell me what to look for and what to avoid, I'm
all ears.
  In the past I've used both Selectric II's and III's and can't
say I prefer one over the other. I am looking to keep it for many
years with only light to moderate use so reliability/parts availability
is somewhat important.
  Anyone want to recommend a US (or Washington DC) area dealer who
stands above the rest?  Or should I just take my chances on E-pay?

  Is there a more appropriate forum for asking about typewriters?

Tim.
