Source for TV parts?

Last night my almost new (less than a year old) TV died.  Wouldn't turn on, no matter what we did.  A bit of searching on the internet revealed that this particular model is notorious for doing this, due to the power distribution board dying (wish I knew that before I bought it, but the price couldn't be beat.  Now I know why, I guess...).  A bit more searching showed that if I can get a new board, it's stupid easy to replace.

However, I have no idea where to get said board.  Does anyone know of any reputable places to acquire TV parts?  I'd prefer somewhere that had a store in the Seattle area, but if you know of a good on-line dealer, that would work too.

Thanks!

You might try Sears. I won't tell you they will  be cheapest, but they depot a lot of parts.

Also, check Amazon. Yeah, that's what I thought, too. A local company wanted to charge me $65 for an element for my oven. $16 delivered to my front door in 2 days from Amazon.  Got some bathroom faucet cartridges for about half of what everyone else was charging.

Start there...be armed with TV model number...

Thank you for the suggestions.  I'll check both of those out.  :)

And, just in case anyone else stumbles on this looking to see what was suggested to me, I was also recommended microcenter.com.
