What parts are we talking?

Things like daughter cards, cd drives, hard drives, ram and processors
are commodity items. And can be bought anywhere reputable. Retail or
online.

Panels, and plastics, and hard drive cages and rails, tend to be
proprietary, and it's either buy one from the manufacturer, or go
fishing on ebay or a used computer dealer. It's a hit and miss kind
of thing.

Power supplies can go either way, but there's been an increasing trend
toward standardization. Heatsinks and fans can go either way also, but
more are standard than not, now. Floppy drives can go either way too
(they're electrically the same, but mounting may be an issue). Of
course with THOSE, there's an increasing trend toward obsolescence.
And not before time.
