American Science Center is a good place to get surplus motors, switches, etc. They have a website and are located here in Chicago. I am sure there are stores out by you as well.

Is this the website:

If so there is a useful gearmotor that is used quite a lot in robotics for miniture drivetrains. It is 19.95 and listed in the robotics section. While I really do not know how large of a motor you need but they are useful for small applications. If you need something bigger then I recommend these websites for motors and they also carry some swtiches and electronics.

Jameco also sells a lot of surplus stepper and regular motors. Plus they also have a lot of the technical documents included. Unfortunatly a lot of there motors are hideously slow but powerful.

Yes, there are also a number of other electronics surplus mail order places. Jameco has good stuff but is a little pricey. Another is All Electronics.
