I recently found out about Atlanta Thread & Supply Co. - http://store.atlantathread.com/ Phone 1-800-847-1001 I reccomend calling to order, as you can be much more specific on things (the online store is more than a bit shoddy for buying needles). Great spot to get needles and other sewing supplies - large selection of zippers, closings, thread (appears to have the full color range of quite a few brands of bulk thread), rotary cutters & blades, etc. They have almost every needle system in all sizes and point styles. 100 count of 15x1 domestic needles for around 15 bucks. 100 pack of B27 and other industrial needle systems for $20. |

I've used them for years. They handle a lot of hard-to-find "stuff" because they also handle commercial products. Great site!!! I really love to order elastic by the roll there and I always buy my rolls of garment bags there.

I reccomend calling to order, as you can be much more specific on things (the online store is more than a bit shoddy for buying needles). I, too, have ordered from them and am pleased with what I have received. Do order by phone if possible. If anything is backordered, you will pay additional shipping when those items are sent to you. I learned this when I called and asked why the shipping on a backorder was more expensive than the actual items being sent and the shipping on the original order. The lady informed me that web orders are handled differently and one is charged shipping for any backorders. She did credit me the cost of shipping the backorder. This policy may have since changed. |
