As someone else suggested Ebay is usually your best bet.
To adequately prepare for the CCNp using your own gear you will need 3
basic routers (2501 is fine) capable of running IOS 12.0 or higher. Most
2500 series routers will need flash and ram upgrades. You will need a
router capable of acting as a frame relay switch (2520 or similar) and
you will need a remote access router (2509 or similar).
You will also need switches capable of running IOS, the older set based
switches are no longer part of the test criteria although you would still
certainly want to learn them. 2900xl and 3550 switches will work as will
4000 5000 and 6000 series switches with the proper supervisor engines.
You will also need all of the assorted cables, transcievers etc necesarry
to make it all go.
