What sites do you go to for video gaming stuff besides eBay?

Play-asia, when I want the blue-moon import.
Its a good question, tho. And one I've been wondering off and on... It seems that, with the demise of many brick-and-mortar indie game shops, the indie online shops have faced a similar fate. Certainly all the bargain shops I used to enjoy in the mid-90s are all gone and wasted.
Amazon only.
I don't know why, I use eBay all the time, but for video game stuff, I like to physically hold/see the copy of what it is before I buy it, unless from Amazon.
Id say Geeks.com too, but they don't have video game stuffs all the time.
Might I suggest viewing http://www.cheapassgamer.com

For older imports I would highly recommend
www.wolfgames.com
Has Saturn, PCE, DC, mainly; plus other consoles all import. Run independantly by one person I believe.
www.ncsx.com imports, domestics.
Used to use ebay alot, and have done a few transactions through forums.

I use YesAsia for imports, because of their free shipping and they also pay custom duties (in credit, not cash but better than nothing). That's only for Europe though, I'm not too sure what their policy for the US is because those orders go through a seperate site.
Domestic games I usually just check for the cheapest price online and go with that.

Hehe...I use try-inc.co.jp, but it only does arcade
no console unless you feel a supergun is. Other than that, it's all local/regional auctions and the ocasional ebay.

All stated and one of my new favorites, Mad-Gear.

They are usually at cons and have fantastic prices on most things. This last weekend I was at Anime Weekend Atlanta and they had a box of MVS carts with them. Samurai Shodown for $20 USD. I almost bought a Spice Gamecube and Gameboy player for $120, but opted for some Gradius fanart instead. They are the closest I can find to be a replacement for Liksang for the games.
