I just ordered and received a zipper assortment from ZipperStop in New York City. The company, formally known as A. Feibusch Corporation, has been in operation in the downtown area for years. They have great product and great service. They carry YKK, Talon, Swarovski, and Riri zippers. They also carry lots of other supplies for sewing and the garment industry. And happily, they are not affected by the rezoning of the Garment District. They are located on the Lower East Side. I spoke with Jeff Feibusch the other day and realized that I was staying within just a couple of subway stops from them when I was there last month. Ah well, I will make it to their storefront next time I'm there.
But if you make it to New York, do stop by their store. And you can order from their online store at eBay. I've done that many times, and the product and service are always top notch. I buy in bulk from them most of the time, but I'll also buy specials on occasion. They'll work with you to get you exactly the closure you need for your project.
They are located at:
A. Feibusch Corp.
27 Allen Street
New York, NY 10002
Phone: 212-226-3964
Fax: 212-226-5844
Thanks to Lorna for pointing out that I forgot their eBay store. You can visit them on eBay here:
ZipperStop eBay Store
I have no association with these folks other than as a very happy customer.
Happy zipping!

Ann, can you please post their eBay store link?
I had a great experience with them as well.
Ann,

Shameless plug or not, their friendly service deserves mention. The perfect zippers were in my mailbox in 2 days.
Thank you for this post. Zippers are the bane of my existence and I always have problems finding good quality replacements for the ones that break down.
I ordered US$208.50 worth of stuff from Zipper Stop and was charged US$40.00 shipping to Australia, via FEDEX.
Unfortunately Jeff Feibusch dispatched it to an Australian address 1300 miles from where I live.
Does he communicate? NO
Is he going to fix it? NO
... and where does that leave me? well ... $208.50 poorer
Wow Lou, that's terrible. I haven't had any bad experiences, even since I wrote this post 2 plus years ago. But I am only in Boston - 200 miles away. I'm sorry to hear your experience, and thanks for posting it.
