Aliexpress for findings. They take a while to come in, free shipping, and super cheap. Everything out there is made in China anyway, why pay more for a middleman?

Quite a variety of them. I purchase quilting fabric to play with, cheap and cheerful jewelry...like fashion jewelry that stores like Sears sells..haha..

When you go on there and do a search for an item, make certain you check their statistics, ie, if they have sales of a few thousand items and are a "Power Seller". Then it's a pretty good chance they're fine to deal with. I've only had positive experiences with Aliexpress.....once when I didn't receive an item, they promptly sent another one. Eventually both arrived because they'd rather replace an item than risk a poor review.

Put a pot of coffee on and enjoy! Order inexpensive items to begin with if you need to get your feet wet. I also find their communication excellent, ie...order placed...shipped, etc. If you want anything by Christmas, like their $3 Christmas cushion covers, lol, order now. Enjoy!

My late Friend and I used to order lots of stuff! Mostly beads, findings, jewellry, etc. Look up fashion statement necklaces and you'll find the same ones that sell in local retail storex at 10x the price! Have fun!

I'm glad Lynn49 that you only had pleasant experiences with Aliexpress. I went through 200 pages on the site just looking at craft supplies, Lol! I also downloaded the app to look at jewelry, pillow cases and nail supplies. thank you so much for the advice on choosing sellers.

I told you, @juliemadden , lol...you'd need a pot of coffee or bottle of wine! It's addictive!!
Wishing you success in your purchases...I mean, there's so little expenditure required, even if something does get lost it's not a big deal. I only had that happen once in many years, and it was replaced, as I mentioned in my previous post.
Enjoy!
