Where does everyone get their dice online? Price is of course a concern, but reliability in ordering is also a must.

(BTW, I would go to the FLGS, but it is just too far away - I guess making it a F(n)LGS.....)

I bought my first few sets of dice from rpgshop (http://www.rpgshop.com) . I have also gotten some from ebay. I personally only use Chessex dice and both sites listed above have a fairly good selection.

I have a shop, though we do order our dice online, so I suppose I would say that Esdevium is a good place to buy dice, as long as you buy in bulk (£200 ($400) at a time) and my wife would buy £200 of dice for her own collection if I let her.

Well, price IS an issue, but if you want a couple of really cool dice you should consider the Q-worksop (http://q-workshop.com/main.php?lang=EN&sell_type=DETAL).

I second Q-Workshop. I got my dice from there, and they're really good.

Thanks to everyone for your responses. RPGShop is winning so far. BTW, I guess I should have been more specific - US based retailers only. I don't think I want to pay international shipping rate (sorry to the Europeans, but I can't afford the cool things you guys get).

A pal of mine says Q-Workshop are now available in States - I think their dealer is Alliances Games (?). Yay, we get what Euros have :smallbiggrin:

I got myself 2 sets of elven ones - white on black and black on yellow. Cool stuff really, wonder how they make them.

As far as selection (including specialty and unusual dice), the best online shops are Advancing Hordes and Gamestation:

http://www.advancinghordes.com/
http://www.gamestation.net/

For the crystal/prism dice, and for premium materials such as metals and semi-precious stones, you can go to Crystal Caste directly:

http://www.crystalcaste.com/

For maximum dice-droolage, Q-Workshop has already been mentioned.

Consider this a second for Advancing hordes. I've bought half a dozen sets of dice from them, and always been pleased with the price, quality of dice, and the shipping time.
