In the Dallas area it's mostly garage sales, which I don't go to, or antique malls, which I do go to. Never find much however, I have seen a few T206's in the last 10-15 yrs. Most were beat up commons for way more than they're really worth. Sometimes folks think "T206 Wagner" is the only baseball card there is for valuations sake. So they are all worth a ton of money regardless of anything that might be accurate.
