Yard sales and flea markets.
I bought an EICO 430 5MHz recurrent trace scope for $10.
A few years later, I got a Heathkit 4205 5MHz dual trace triggered scope
for $8.
Last year I got a Phillips PM3267 100MHz scope (with probe) like new for
$10!
So, just spend every weekend for the next few years hitting every flea
market and yard sale you can, and you might get lucky, too. Or, if you
need one in this lifetime, expect to pay a bit more.

Depending on where you are located Google for "hamfest" (ham radio swapfest).
Over the years I've picked up all kinds of interesting stuff.
