Sure do.I deal as close to home as possible.But I'm in Canada,so shipping & exchange are an issue.The USA offers free ship within.Check it out and take your pick.1Stop is cheaper than most you may wait longer.I'ts a crapshoot.

You've found a pretty reasonable place. If I need them quick on the West coast I use: http://www.discountreed.com/

Did someone try 1stop??? I think I'am going to order there and since it's my first time buying reeds online and I' am from outside USA I don't want to have a bad first experience. Thank you.

I"ve used these guys a few times:
http://www.usareeds.com/

The prices are good and they've always shipped right away. No complaints.

I have used 2-3 sites when I needed something.
1) wwbw.com
2) www.dentonmusicstore.com

Good luck though

Weiner music is fast and the most reliable. (Simon can I get a 5% discount for that plug?

The other place is in my home back in Indiana...PROWINDS...they are a great little music shop and have good prices....

I've used 1st stop and they have been really good...
WWBW is consistent...

You'll be fine, I've ordered several things from them and they have all arrived very quickly.

I have used 1stop many times. They are great, fast and reliable. They are quickly supplanting wwbw as my first stop for reeds ligatures and sometimes even mouthpieces. After that, it's weiner music and lastly wwbw.

Hey thanks for yours answers, I was thinking of ordering a mouthpiece too (S80 D) (Mpc have no return policy in 1stop so I think they are not going to send me a tried one). What do you think?

About what? Do a search and see if that's what you want. If you are questioning the service, the answer going to be the same as if you were buying reeds. I've bought several accessories from them as well with no problem.
I just bought some reeds today, thanks to this thread.

For European users, I'd recommend Reeds Direct http://reeds.woodwindandreed.co.uk/ for reasonable prices, a good choice, and quick service.

Sure you can as long as i can move 5% on what you want. Shipping to Japan however might hurt.

Yea, Weiner's was good. Got my reeds in a few days; the only reason it is slower than WWBW was because I live 2 hrs from there. The only downside was the bajillion email I recieved telling me about my order and when it would ship.
