Default Best places to buy reeds online

I found that discountreed.com sells reeds at a pretty good price. I have been buying the new ZZs there and they ship pretty quick. Have you found better places?

Default Charlie A's is good source to buy Fibracell numbered

Since Fibracell has started to sell numbered reeds (instead of just soft, med soft, etc.) I found Charlie A's to have a good selection and really fast service with reasonable shipping and price.

Reeds are about $8 each.

Fred Weiner has fast shipping too for my cane reeds.

Music 123.com seems to be good to deal with. I have purchased Reeds for my Tenor and Alto. Also some other items. Hope this helps. Regards,
Jim

I buy mine from WW&BW: http://www.woodwindbrasswind.com

Great service, great prices, very professional. I've placed at least 6-7 orders there with no problem, no hassle, and reasonable delivery times.

I would buy mine locally, but I can't get anyone around here (Birmingham) to carry Rico Jazz Select.

I think the best place in the U.K is Reeds Direct. I think there prices are by far the best!!!

My vote goes to reeds-direct too; I tried a lot of shops and they provide the fastest shipment in Europe; very good prices as well :P

Reeds Direct are certainly the best in the UK, and possibly in Europe. Good prices, free delivery (in UK) and I've always received them the next morning. It's quicker and easier than going across town to the shop. Prices are not good compared to the US but over here you'd have to buy 5 boxes before you start to break even after adding the mailing costs.
