I've purchased MANY blanks off of ebay, no problems so far.
You have to be careful, as you can loose any potential savings when you get
dinged with shipping.. always get a quote before bidding.

I get good rates and prompt shipping from a seller called TheWoodGuy
http://stores.ebay.com/thewoodguy1

and also RiversEdgeExotics has quoted me reasonable shipping

Good luck!

Strange. I just perused their site and even the pen blanks (.75"x.75"x6")
were more than $2.
