Reputable online art stores?

Note that I don't use paypal (nor do I wish to). There apparently is no art stores here that has the supplies I need. Pearl Online is practically barren with available items to purchase and I am very much in need of some new leads for my pencils and some sketchbooks to boot.

any input is appreciated.

edit: I don't live in NY (aka) "big city"...kthx

I've never actually ordered online from these stores but these are both very reputable stores here:

* Omer Deserres (Loomis & Toles outside of Québec, I think)
* British Blueprint

I've been going to both for years. Hope that helps. :)

Hm. cool but...do they take USD? I don't wanna be charge extra for Canadian fees.

Aren't you in New York? Seems like you should be able to find whatever you want.

Utrecht is the best, and they usually have brick and mortor stores in big cities.

Really, I am in New York? That's news to me. :chick:

seriously though - as I've said for months on this board I live in CT, otherwise I wouldn't have bothered posting this thread (makes sense now doesn't it?) ;)

I'll agree Utrecht will probably have anything you need... just go to utrecht.com

thanks, about Utrecht - how are their shipping rates, do you need to have PayPal?
