I found that I can usually a decent amount of money by finding name brand servos on eBay. I've put a link to the servos currently available on eBay under each of the servo charts below.

If you're willing to take a chance, cheaper servos from China and Taiwan can be a viable option.

GWS Servos

Grand Wing Servo-Tech Co is a Taiwanese manufacture of RC components. GWS specializes in electrical components such as motors, ESC's, ducted fans, and servos all geared towards electric powered flight.
