I don't know if this is the best source, but Rio Grande has a large selection.

If you have a resale #,
CGM findings is an excellent resource.

For non-wholesale, smaller quantities, I have found Fire Mountain Gems a good source for findings.

cheapest is not best for earring hooks. unless the design is very small or light I always use 20 gauge sterling. I like the ones from FMG but you have to buy a lot to get the best pricing.

I recommend the niobium earrings because no one is allergic to them.
They are handsome and come in many colors.
The best sellers in my shop are the dark copper ones with the bright copper ball and the gray ones with a sterling ball.
I sell them for $2. a pair, but you can order them from Tierra Cast with an account.

That is a very reasonable price, Joyce. I had to order 100 pairs from Rings and Things to get them for $1.76/pair. The only problem I have had is getting customers to recognize they are niobium and not copper. Even with a special label on the hangtag for the earrings, people still just don't understand.
