Hello. I have been searching for some 40K bits with very little luck, so I was wondering if anyone knew of good bits stores that I may not be aware of. eBay has been my best source to date, but they are very hit or miss. I am in the US, so I would prefer to order from a US based store to avoid delays and expensive shipping. I also searched this forum for similar posts and did not find any, so hopefully this is not a common request that I am rehashing. Lastly, I checked the article about bits stores on here, but it is super outdated and the discussion for it hasn't been touched since 2010.

If you can help me out with some suggestions that would be great! Thank you!

I personally use the eBay sellers Black Dagger Games and Bits World. I have ordered from them both dozens of times with no issues.

eBay. Whoever sells & ships the bits I want the cheapest.

EBay is pretty much the only remaining option for GW bits. What specific bits are you looking for? Third party producers might have what you're looking for.

You could probably ask for specific items in the swap shop too; some of us have HUGE bits boxes saved up for a rainy day.

I was looking at the Hoard O' Bits site after the last thread, and they seem to have better prices on a lot of what I am interested in. However, their eBay store and their own site have different items listed as being in stock. What does that mean, and am I better off ordering through their eBay store or off their website?

I would say eBay. It's probably correct, plus you will really need to use its buyer protection in case anything goes wrong with that guy!
