Hi guys I'm just wondering if any of you know of any good sources for cheap parts. Specifically I'm looking for 4 Saurus Warrior bodies. I already have 24 after I purchased the Saurus Warriors from a friends Start Collecting box and when I get my second box I'll have 36 total with more than enough spare parts to make four more excluding the bodies. I found one supplier on eBay where I can get just the four bodies with shipping for $10, or another supplier for $25 I can get 20, but unless someone else needs 16 bodies who I could sell the rest too seems pointless. At $10 it's not a bad deal per se except at that value a full Saurus Warrior is worth $2.25 each at full GW price so it'd make more sense to buy a full box from my LGS and then sell off the complete 16 Warriors I don't need. Any ideas? Thanks!
I think Ebay and such are your best bet. Not sure how many people part out the sprues, but there has to be someone out there.
I typically would just keep browsing and look for the bulk lots where someone is simply trying to get rid of their stuff. I've found that these are usually the best deals on eBay. You get a lot of mismatched bits but that simply helps when you are trying to do custom jobs.
Also, since Saurus are a basic core choice and their kit has been in circulation for a long while, they are both plentiful and cheap on ebay. If you scan Ebay for a short time you should come across some amazing deals.

You never know what you'll get with the bulk lots too. Sometimes the seller is really just trying to get rid of everything and they don't know what they have or how they should price them. I once bought a lot of O&G for a few Black Orcs and Boar Boys. The seller sent me the lot I bid on as well as an entire O&G starter set! It had never been opened!that significantly boosted me O&G army!
Sadly being in Canada I get screwed on the shipping there big time! $13 for the first and $20 for the second on top of the models.
Oh kay..... off to eBay.ca ... or free shipping... (man Canada is expensive, free shipping it is) http://www.ebay.com/itm/x20-Warhamm...348670?hash=item25d097073e:g:nAkAAOSwal5YDR24 or http://www.ebay.com/itm/OOP-Lizardm...685517?hash=item237f01e34d:g:P5UAAOSw44BYV0oJ seems good. but still more expensive than the first post, but at least there are more of them...
Hoard 'O Bits normally has a good supply, but it has grown smaller since AOS kicked off... I was able to get a bunch of Bretonnian bits from them before that line went off the shelves. I have also used The War Store, but they don't do battlewagon bits anymore due to GW lawyers knocking on their doors too many times.
