I order a lot of mine.
And not all feathers are created equal. There are feathers you will use for buggers, but you need different feathers for parachutes or smaller dries.
Sometimes, paying more for a whole cape will save in the long run as it will cover a wide spectrum.
Plus a lot of tying material you can find elsewhere. Like Mohair, you can find in knitting supplies, but you will want to strip the fibers from the string.
Mylar you can find in gift wrapping. A lot of feathers you can find at Michael's.
