I have found Roll Models to have the least expensive prices by far! Takes them longer to ship though compared to Squadron. However, their shipping times (2 - 3 weeks) are comparable to just about any other online hobby supply I've done business with.

Dad always said, "There's a difference between Miss Right and Miss Right Now." If you are looking for the Miss Right item, go online. If you are looking for a Miss Right Now item, go to your local hobby store.

http://www.rollmodels.com/

These are also two more sites great for finding online and local resources.
http://www.hobbyretailer.com/
http://www.scalemodelindex.com/

The links at these sites are pretty accurate, but the business listed might not be around anymore; such is the case with my local hobby shop. NOOOOO!!! Sad [:(]

If you are interested in Japanese model company products, you can try www.hlj.com (hobby link Japan). I have used them and have had nothing but good experiences.
They are based in Japan, so shipping can be a bit more expensive, so it's better to order a lot of stuff in one shot :-)))))

Here's a couple of links to Canadian Online stores ... I've used them both and have had great service from them.

Im from Canada and dont have a huge selection of local shops or canadian online stores to purchase my modeling supplies from. I was just wondering what some other online stores you have all used and liked for things like selection, price, and shipping.

Im interested to hear what you think
