I wouldn't go so far as to suggest buying a Laser (but that's another story)...

Pre-Owned Electronics (30 Clematis Ave, Waltham, MA  02154; 1-800-274-5343)
sells all sorts of Apple II-Apple ///-Macintosh-Lisa parts.  I have done
a lot of business with them, both personally and at work.  I cannot say
enough about them.

In their 6-7-89 flier, they list a //e IWM ship for $49 (qty 10+ $29).
Call before you order, since they sometimes don't have everything in stock
(although that's not too often).  They take VISA & MC.
