Probably not.  However the occasionally can be found by people trying to 
get rid of thin in comp.sys.sun.wanted.

Fry's (a S.F. Bay area electronics/computers/junk food distributor)
has new '020s and '882s in little plastic baggies on their shelves.
I remember a '882 was about $30. I don't recall the price of '020s.
It's probably cheaper to find another 3/60 MB.  I bought one for
$60 recently.

Memory is another thing you might want to pick up on the used market.
The best price I've seen for new 100ns 1MB SIMMS is $27 dollars.  For
example, I'm arranging to by a 12MB 3/60 w/mono display for $150.  

My being in the Bay Area probable helps, as there is a higher
concentration of old workstations.
