I’m looking for DE wych arms and Hoar-O-Bits is out. I don’t know of any other trustworthy Bits sellers and I’m finding the pined thread to chaotic to be helpful. So who else is good in the US?

Not US based but I use Bitz and Kits in the UK for all my bits purchases. Never had a problem and they ship to Canada and the US for relatively cheap. Frequent site wide sales too.

Just hit up eBay - tons of options, and most of the shops on there have 99%+ positive ratings.

I second eBay.

After scouring endless bits websites full of page after page of "Out of Stock" I gave up and decided to just use eBay. There is a huge range of sellers, items and as Elbows says most have exceptional feedback.

Blackdagger Games (windowbox) and bitsworld on ebay are two I have used frequently on ebay and have been happy with.

There are tons of US based bits sellers on ebay though. Any with good ebay ratings would be fine.

I primarily get from HoB via eBay. But I've also gotten from Bits World. They both are good to me.

Blackdagger Games (windowbox) is great. I ordered from them all the time until their shipping charges to Canada quadrupled. Then i switched to UK, France and Germany based sellers also on ebay.

I also use Windowbox and Bits-world and have never had any issues with either.

I like Hoard O' Bits for some things because, unlike a lot of sellers, they sell by the sprue, not the bit, which can be excellent if you need units worth of things. They also do email notifications for restocked items.

He knows that I know and you know that he actually doesn't know the rules at all.

Just a little FYI on Hoard O'Bits. They have a 99+ percent positive rating. BUT, if anything goes wrong with your order, prepare for radio silence from them. Prepare to be frustrated. That has been my experience and many others' experience.

Still, if they have the bits you need, go for it, the odds are pretty darn low they will screw up.

Thanks for all the replies! I haven’t ordered bits in a while and didn’t know who was A) trustworthy, and B) had reasonable shipping for US costomers. I know the basics of EBay but figured rather than just going with whoever had what I wanted and looked at least semi-professional I’d see who other Dakkaites trusted.

Blackdagger games for me. Been using them for years.
