Which store to order online?

Went to Hal Leonard's site to order a few book/CD packs. (Never went there before). When I went to purchase they gave me a lot of online stores to order from. Just wondering which is the most reliable store to place an order.

Thanks in advance.

I just got an order in from Amazon, and... All of the headphone cords I got are bad. They had intermittent opens (or shorts, I'm not sure which), so the crackles and pops are very loud. Are there other places which are better for cords and adapters?

When you deal with Amazon. particularly for something like cables, you probably actually deal with a third party. Amazon does business with a heck of a lot of third party companies.

I've ordered all kinds of stuff through Amazon that was a lot more expensive than cables and never had a problem.

If you received defective items, you should be able to have some recourse for replacement or refund.

If you do a TB search, you will find all kinds of recommendations for reliable sources of cables, etc.

jazzbooks.com has quite a few bass books that aren't readily available at Amazon
They're very reliable and quick
plus they're the source for the world's supply of play along books/CDs
