Unfortunately stackables are hard to find, and NOT cheap - especially at the 2x20 size.
When I designed Morpheus (2007), I had to order 1000pcs to get even a semi-decent price - and as I recall it had a six or eight week lead time. Later they doubled prices, and stopped making them.
Be sure to get specs from the eBay seller regarding the height of the housing above the PCB. There's some extra plastic on those that could produce a non-standard board spacing.

The best I've found so far is 10pin stackable headers.

Adam Tech also makes them as I recall.
As Leon points out Samtec makes them, or if you can wait longer Oupiin or 4ucon (taiwan) also have them cheap.
these are nice. 2X20 2.54mm a dollar each

It sure is. I've been looking for these as well but the best price I'd got was $1.02 for a MOQ of 1k.
I haven't figured out how to buy things from ebay without going through paypal.
We got burned bad a few years ago and will never use them again.
Jeff, if you are going to bring in stock, I'll buy some from you.
Say 20? Name your price!
Or pm?
