--- Is there a better place to purchase this from than ebay or amazon?

Always depend, if the seller it's from your country (to avoid customs) and have a good price it's the best option. If you need to import from outside your country there are better online-stores (hit japan in some things it's expensive. Example: famicoms for 50-60$)
