I have been searching ebay and craigslist for any and all kinds of software that will run on my PM G5 tower and its pretty spotty. Does anyone know a good website that has a large selection of used software (games, utilities etc.)

I don't know where you can get actual discs of games and utilities for the PPC Mac, but you can go to cnet.com for downloads and filter your criteria for the specific OS.

You can also go to http://mymacintoshcollection.com for advice on specific apps depending on the OS as well.

Certain developers provide licenses for older versions of their software if you buy the latest version. Or you could inquire separately and see what they have to say.

A store, no. There are sites that have been posted here, but they only share Open Source (GPL) software. Commercial software has been gone for quite a while, there are still some, but not as much as it was back in 2006.
