Pentium 4 CPU wanted

Hi guys
I have tried and tried to find a reasonably priced Pentium 4, 512 FSB 533MHZ, 2.0 or 2.4G CPU...even with Ebay and I get oubid every single time. Newegg's processor described above is $158 plus tax (free shipping). I am about ready to settle for 400MHz, 2.0 or 1.8G...but even those are high priced to me.

Anyone have a good online place to purchase one? I have tried Newegg, ZipZoomfly and a couple of others. Each one more expensive than the other

Recommendations anyone?
Thanks in advance

Are you dead set on getting a P4? If not, you could easily get a AMD XP 2500+ for around $90 at newegg.

Well, since they are so expensive, I know I can probably aford no more than $110, maybe as high as $120. I know there are good deals out there, I just haven't been able to grasp them...I love putting together computers. Danged expensive hobby, though

Thanks!

I sold a 9 month old P4 2.4B for $125.00 USD and I wouldn't take any less for it.
You may have to bite the bullet and get a new one at newegg.
