Usually on eBay. Last winter I had 64 Mac SE's and SE30's with 
AppleShare Server 2 and/or 3 for sale. I only sold 10 of them (average 
price $5.00) gave away about 10 of them and the rest ended up in a land 
fill in Michigan because I had no takers and needed the space. I had the 
same problem with Apple Extended Keyboard (ADB, works great on the 
IIgs). I have about 50 of them in a box and couldn't sell one last 
winter for $0.99! I had 10 Mac SE's with Apple Internet Router and only 
sold the one that had an ethernet card in it for $5.00. The rest went 
into the landfill with the servers.

I may still have one or two copies of the server software still 
available for sale in the original box. I may even have one still shrink 
wrapped. And I still have the ADB keyboards, but only until I need the 
space.
