Where to buy 700c rims?

I'm looking to buy new rims for a frankenbike project and can't find a low cost set. I have good set of 36H hubs.
Any suggestions?

Just the usual supply chain options. Local bike shops, E bay, Amazon, Craigs List, on line stores, forum classified ads, friends. Andy

How "low cost" are we talking? Supply chain issues have driven up the price of cheap "commodity" rims (usually single-wall or triple-box), but they're still out there.

If they are showing out of stock stuff too in that link then you can filter it for in-stock parts near the top of the left column of the page. Didn't specifically check for 36 hole rims though.

I got them on ebay from random.bike.parts. Glad to hear folks see this as a decent deal (2021 decent).

I love weinmann lp18s. Been using them for years on all my bikes. eBay has them (36h) for 45 bucks each. They're pretty bulletproof if they're built right and don't weigh a ton either...
