My go-to place for used technical books (online anyway) is Alibris. Other than Alibris I also find books on Ebay from time to time.

In meatspace, I like a little used bookstore in Raleigh NC, near the NC State University campus, called Reader's Corner[1].

Raleigh used to have another great used bookstore called Edward McKay Used Books And More, but they closed down. There was also The Book Shoppe in Chapel Hill that closed down. And that one big used book store in Durham at the corner of Main St. and Chapel Hill St. Also gone. This area has lost a lot of good book stores over the last several years. :-(
