The best one is the one that has the part you need.
I have the feeling this is not for your personal use and you are asking us to make your research easier. You joined today and want info, how about you tell us what is going on then MAYBE we can help you. Try starting out with honesty

You will quickly discover the economy in used is limited. It's nice when you can find the right thing at a reduced price but along with that is the time invested finding it, cost retrieving or shipping it, then more time and money fitting it for your purpose. So while I wouldn't advocate all new as a default, careful what you invest in finding used, it may end up costing more than new when you're done. My take on it would be rather than seeking out the piece parts, maybe find a derelict RV you can buy whole and part it out. One with water or collision damage would be very inexpensive and would yield a lot of usable house parts. I've seen some limited selection of RV usable items at fleamarkets and thrift stores, so making a pass through those once in a while might turn up a few items (along with some entertainment value).

In California the choices are limited. Try Ebay, Colaws RV Salvage, Visione RV Salvage
Colaws and Visione are NOT in Californiia

You probably won't find many RV salvage yards in CA because their environmental laws make it expensive to run a wrecking yard and an RV salvage yard is a niche market.

Closer to California is RV Yard (Arizona RV Salvage) in Glendale (Phoenix) AZ. You didn't say which part of California you're in, but if you're in Southern California it would be worth the drive to check them out.

Walt's in Corona, California. Has tons of stuff. Shop there all the time. They also perform repairs although I haven't used them for that. Although you have to accept the fact that the owner is an extremist when it comes to politics. Word of advice: if you don't bring it up, you won't have a problem with him. I like to just browse around through the place just rummaging around.

Well , after reading your advice , I think the best for me is to sell the van and buy a small RV in USA.
