PLASABALI
https://www.plasabali.com

Because Plasabali is located in Bali, shipping to the U.S. is expensive (although they now offer "low express" shipping if you are willing to wait a couple weeks for your order), but they have some amazing prices on silver and vermeil beads and findings that certainly make up for the shipping cost if you can buy in bulk. Quality is excellent, especially their sterling silver clasps.

https://www.shipwreckbeads.com
I once beaded with a woman who said she’s bought so many beads from Shipwreck over the years that she feels like she owns part of the place.

One of the very few shops in the U.S. that has a large selection of Preciosa Ornela brand beads and crystals.
