Palms
I've had good luck on Ebay (fortunate for me, since the only "chandlery" around me is West marine's branch in Philadelphia) with used palms... the rattiest I got I simply soaked in some neat's-foot oil and then dried it and let it sit for a while. It absorbed the oil and (besides being easy to locate by smell alone) came right back to life for me.
Best of luck.
