I recently ordered from Sprue Brothers. Fast shipping and no damages.
Who is also trustworthy?
Apologies if I'm beating a dead 1/35 scale horse. I looked around the site here and didn't really see anything. Is there a sticky, maybe?
Thank you.

I use Sprue Brothers, Hobbylinc, ScaleHobbiest and UpscaleHobbies. They have all been great.
Thanks,

Sprue Bros is a top notch site, no worries

I really don't understand your question?

Did you look in the Ready Room forum:

That's really where this kind of question is asked, so you'd be most likely to find threads there. Of course, other threads about online retailers might be buried in the specialty threads, like Ships, making it harder to find them.
To answer your question, no, there is no pinned post here in FSM with a list of good online hobby vendors. I agree with you about Sprue Brothers, they have earned their good reputation.
From my own experience, I recommend Freetime Hobbies, previously based in Georgia but now moved across the state line into North Carolina.
MegaHobby based in New Jersey is also very good.

From what companies do you trust to buy models from online?
Thanks everyone for the replies. I'm still learning the site.
Sprue Bros, FreeTime, and now Atlantis are three I've used with great service and selection. I also get stuff from Tower Hobbies since I'm am afflicted with the RC addiction.

I only use sprue brothers. For cars, modelroundup seems to have a good reputation; although I have to admit, I have not ordered from them yet...
GMorrison what he said.Also Amazon.

Amazon can been a good place, with one major caveat - always, ALWAYS click on the link to check the seller's ratings and reviews. Not the product description link, the Seller's link. Some Amazon sellers are very good - and some are beyond schysters.
I got a couple of go to Ebay shops

Yeah, I second dragon-hobby, too. I've bought some things from him, most recently last Wednesday. Great selection, decent prices and fast shipping. The item I bought on Wednesday arrived yesterday. And it'd have been faster, if it weren't for eBay's current payment process. When they still used PayPal for payments direct to the seller instead of to eBay, I'd pay DH, and he'd have it in the mail to me that day.
I also use Kitlinx.

Rebelalpha is another great Ebay shop for models & accessories
