I don't think we have a good list anywhere of websites, and coming to the end of spring brake I've had nothing to do so...
Thank you to everyone who contributed!

www.atthefront.com/ -------USA----------- At the Front is great for information on uniforms. They sell high quality gear, and I have always been pleased with the orders I have placed with them. They are a bit pricey. They have American and German gear.
www.1944militaria.com/Default.asp ------------USA------------------------ 1944 militaria is another great site. They are quite pricey but they have very high quality gear. They have German gear.
www.wwiiimpressions.com/ ----------------USA-------------------------- wwiiimpressions perhaps is the most pricey, but their quality is excellent. They are made in the USA.
whatpriceglory.com/ ------------USA---------------------- They have some good repros, and also sell a lot of original items. They do American, English, Canadian, Scottish, Indo-China, and Indiana Jones gear
www.hessenantique.com/ --------USA-------- They have some good information about uniforms and their quality is good. I've ordered some gear from them and I was pleased with the order. Mostly German gear, although there is some American gear as well.
www.ima-usa.com/ ------------------USA--------------------- International Military Antiques, they some good repros and originals. American, British, French, Spain, German and Japanese. Their store isn't organized too well but you can search for what you want.
www.mantheline.com/index.php ----------USA--------------------- They have tons of gear and uniforms. They have some modern gear besides WWII American, British, German, and French.
www.jmurrayinc1944.com/ --------------USA------------------ WWII US helmets
www.emcmilitaria.com/ --------------USA------------- Mostly American but some Russian gear as well.
www.ostfront.com/ ------------USA----------- Mainly German but some Russian gear as well
www.combatsportsupply.com ----------USA----------- They don't have much WWII gear (Mostly Vietnam), but they are really cheap since a lot of it is surplus. They take a long time to ship. It took them two weeks just to ship my order, then another week for delivery.
www.kelsmilitary.com -----------USA--------- Kelley's Military, about the same quality as the Asian vendors for similar prices, but the merchandise is stateside already so none of the long shipping times.
www.militarytour.com/index.htm -------------Canada--------- A lot of great reproductions.
www.epicmilitaria.com/ ------------UK-------------- Epic Militaria - very good guys, mainly German stuff but some allied. Reliable and not terrible prices.
www.sofmilitary.co.uk/reenactors/select.asp ---------------UK----------- Soldier of fortune, hit and miss, massive range but some poor repros, you can sometimes find yourself paying a 'mark up' on stuff imported from other stores like 'what price glory'
www.shootnscoot.co.uk/ww2 ---------------UK-------------- shoot n' scoot, *the* place to go for custom airsoft guns from wwii bren guns to 19th centurymuzzle loading flintlocks!
www.sabresales.co.uk/ ------------UK------------- Sabre Sales, currently in the process of running down their stock and selling up but these guys are still the cheapest suppliers of vintage brit kit. Not that much WWII left now but they still haves piles of wwii webbing (brit mostly) for stupidly cheap prices. Also a great place for insignia, badges and buttons.
www.richardaunderwood.com/ -----------UK------------ Richard Underwood, Probably the best supplier of axis kit in the UK.
www.motion-picture-props.com/ ---------------UK------------- Motion Picture Props, only heard good stuff about these guys, dont think they are 'cheap' but I have heard their kit is good.
www.pegasusmilitaria.com/ -----------UK------------- Pegasus Militaria, Pegasus 'steve kiddle' do probably the best repro brit airborne equipment you can get. They also make custom items and again, while not cheap, the quality stands out.
www.panther-store.cz/en ------------Czechoslovakia--------------------------------- WWII British and German, and WWI and WWII Czech gear.
www.gavinmilitaria.com/index.php --------China(HK)----------- British and German gear and uniforms.
hikishop.net/ ------------------------China(HK)--------------- A variety of gear.
www.ebay.com/sch/Militaria-/13956/i.html?_ipg=50&_from=&_nkw=&_armrs=1&_ssn=shop2009mb -------China----------- Shop2009mb is where most of my friends go, and I have bought tons of stuff from them for US and German. Their prices are really low, but some things are pretty low quality. He is only on Ebay. His company is located in China, so shipping does takes longer. He does mostly German and Japanese but has some American, Russian, and even Chinese stuff.
www.ebay.com/sch/Militaria-/13956/i.html?_ipg=50&_from=&_nkw=&_armrs=1&_ssn=youchunhe2008 ----China------------ Another favorite of mine, they are like the one listed above they are cheap but some of their repros are pretty low quality. They are also only an Ebay store, and located in China so shipping takes a while. They do mostly German and Japanese, but have some American and Russian.
Stay away from these sites!

frontofrussia.com/ --------------------Russia-------------------------------- Front of Russia you have to order at your own risk. People order from them and their package is never shipped.
www.wwiiguns.com/ ------------------Japan(Tokyo)---------------------------------- This site is the worst out of all of them. I've heard tons of complaints of scamming from people buying from them. Notice how they have every weapon in stock? And they cost three times as much as normal?
www.toppots.net/ ----------------Australia & USA--------------------- I've recently found many complaints of them. It takes very long to complete an order and the owner does not respond to emails
