    Well, since others are advertising their own online stores in this thread, I may as well do so too. :mrgreen:

    At our online store, fabrics are priced between $5/yd (for older sale fabrics,) and our standard top price for the newest fabrics, which is now $8.90. Our highest-end Japanese silk-screened fabrics by Lecien and others, normally retail priced at $14-15/yd are higher, currently at around 10.50. The next round of our newest fabrics arriving this spring will be slightly higher, probably slightly over $9/yd. We do not raise prices on fabrics we bought at a lower price point, unless it's replacement stock purchased at a higher price.

    We ship to most countries, with the exception of a few where there are hostile governments, rampant mail theft or unreliable postal service. Over 20% of our business comes from International orders, so we're very experienced at shipping internationally.

    What is the average price per yard at your LQS? I think mine is $9.50 for prints from all the different mills

    Anywhere from $8 and up; depending on the brand name. That's why I'm stocking up now on end of year sales.

    My lqs seldom offers sale prices on current stock. New prices before year-end were around 10.50/yd for Moda, Benartex, Thimbleberries. I didn't notice batik prices.

    Old collections - $20 . All other US$20-30 .

    I only buy online and this type of purchase is increasing.
    Unfortunately some stores do not ship internationally,
    other ship the most expensive way to be on the safe side.
    I´ve been ordering online a lot for years now without loosing a single package.
    A question of knowing how things work locally.
    Should anyone be interested, feel free to pm me.

    In Alabama prices are $10 to $11 a yard at the quilt stores. The price of fabric is going up. My web site will be up Feb. 1 and I'll have quilt shop quality for several dollars less. I can buy wholeale. Hope you will take a look.

    Every LQS in Southern Ontario that I have visited lately has fabric from $12.99 to $18.99 with most in the $14 - $16 a metre range. A metre is 39 inches so it is slightly bigger than your yard. Mennonite shops which are often part of the home are a little cheaper $8- $13 but they seldom carry the latest fabrics. I was in the Quilting Bee quilt shop in Fonthill Ontario yesterday (one of the ten best quilt shops summer 2010)and their fabric was $15-$17 a metre with some clearance fabrics at $7 upstairs.
