As I use black often in my quilts, it's come in handy.
And I have enough left for a few quilts.

The prices at Kings Men are pretty reasonable. They have poly and cotton and mixed battings, white, natural and black.

I recently ordered from them and it was ok (a bit of a problem with an error in the shipment and subsequent return).
Prices are certainly the lowest around.
But I'd order from them again - although call first to make sure they're still shipping. (888) 744-0070
There was a thread recently suggesting otherwise.

You don't mention the size you bought.
Here are Hancock's offerings:

King's Men may have closed; the owners retired (read on another board).

I have rarely seen black batting in a LQS.

But there appear to be several online stores that have it:

Connecting Threads has a queen size: http://www.connectingthreads.com/too...g__D20826.html

Quilter's Warehouse has it as well: http://www.quilterswarehouse.com/s-2...t-batting.aspx

These are just two that I saw.
