Replacement bearings - source?

Where are you buying your replacement bearings?

I just visited a local bearing manufacturer to see if they sold direct to consumer but their prices were not cost competitive and they recommended I buy off the internet.

Anyone know any good online resources other than MBS and GI? I don't mind supporting them as I've had good luck with the bearings that both of them sell - just looking to see if anyone has found any good deals on good bearings from other resources.

I've gotten vxb bearings for all sorts of things, hockey stakes, skateboards, buggies, etc. they've worked great for me, they also have many grades you can choose from. I got a relatively high grade with oil for my inline hockey skates and I was amazed how clean they stayed.
