I haven't, although I'm willing (YOU BET!!!) to check into ANYWHERE stupid cheap! But, I'm thinking, you might want to move this over to the knitting forum site for more attention? I just sort of stumbled on this, and there's lots of knitters checking things out over on "Knit." Meanwhile, I'll be looking at the site you found!

Holy Knitting Needles!  This sight is incredible! I'm no internet guru, but they seem to be an ebay vendor with good feedback, although I guess that stuff can be dummied up ~ but this is one fine darn job if it's a fake. The only catch seems to be the $30 minimum order, but that's not a problem to spend if you HAVE it to spend! Let me know if you decide to do it; I'm likely to in the next couple of weeks. Normally I get all my stuff at ACM but this place has the more off-beat items that ACM doesn't carry. Good for you!

I just happened on this post. You might want to do some serious consideration of this seller. Yes, they have good feedback on eBay and I regularly 'shop' from some eBay-only vendors. The only draw back that I see is that they are in China and everything is shipped via China Mail. The few times that I have ordered from China (other vendors) the packages seem to take FOREVER to arrive. When I was beading alot, I bought all of my clossine' beads from a guy in HongKong and it ALWAYS took at least 12-14 WEEKS (a few times it was over 7 months) to get anything!!!!!! Otherwise, their prices are 'stupid' cheap. I know that I wouldn't have a very hard time spending the minimum. JAT HTH

Hi
I ordered from this site. When all was said and done, it cost me about 39.00 for the total order (shipping handling etc). I got something like 47 Circular Knitting needles and stitch markers, in the sizes that I have found hard to get. I use circulars all the time and the smaller length cable is not easy to get, or it will cost you a pretty penny for one. I also like using the UK needles since many of my patterens are old and use the UK sizes (meaning that it is metric LOL). I do like my Options but they start at #4 and I use #0-3 in US or UK. Now if I could only find the 00's and 000's I would have it made  .
From what I just read from JRHBoxers, shipping was not a problem. took about 2-2.5 weeks, which I have had from places here in the Americas, sometimes even longer, I have waited more than a month from one or two places in the states. 
The needles themselves are nice smooth needles, at least the ones I got are. Would like to see better pictures on the site, and I would like to try their needle cases, maybe next time.pray

Glad to hear it; I'm always on the lookout in particular for the accessories that I seem to use or lose to quickly, and the needle cases because I've accumulated so many circulars in so many lengths! Thanks for the report!

You may want to try this site as well. http://www.maryjanes.com. I have bought items from there and they are very reasonable and they have great sales and they also have items in stock that you may not find anywhere else or that may be discontinued.
