Kippah Help!

I'm sure it's been asked a billion times here but where can I buy the cheapest?I'm not looking for anything fancy, no engraving, just plain and simple.I probably need about 50-60.Any recommendations?Also, which ones do you pick? I noticed there are many different materials and sizes etc... Any help and recommendations would be greatly appreciated!Thanks!

    I don't have an answer (sorry)... but I did lurk through your bio! I live in one of the buildings in the background of the Epic! GREAT venue choice!!

    Mine weren't plain or cheap but I got them at www.davidkippot.com. They turned out really nice.  FI said they were the nicest he has ever seen for a wedding and decided to wear one himself instead of buying his own here locally.  Mine are champagne silk brocade but there are cheaper ones on that site.What I can help with is size--David was very helpful when he saw my order--he warned me they were way too small (I had ordered 16 cm).  He suggested 18-20 cm.  I went with 18 which was even a little small still.  If I had it to do over I would probably have ordered 18.5 or 19.Most online places I saw have a 60 piece minimum.  Some other places I looked were www.skullcap.com and www.a-zara.com

    I got them through mazeltops.com--Chaykah was great to talk to on the phone and very helpful when we kept changing our order!

    My sister lives in Israel (for the next 3 weeks - they're moving back to the States in Nov!) and purchased ours for us  -- WAAYYYYY cheaper than any websites I found. we ended up getting knitted kippot, and my brother-in-law actually negotiated a better price for us than my sister had. If you have friends or family in Israel, I would highly recommend going that route. Or, if you are thinking of knitted kippot, you can always check around and see if someone local will knit them for you - you might be able to negotiate a decent price. Good luck!

    I'd use either Mazel tops or Koolkipah.com - while David of davidkippot.com is a nice guy and the kippot themselves are inexpensive, you'll pay in term of shipping (he quoted me $40).  It defeated the purpose so I'm going to use Mazel tops. GL.

    I'd second (third?) Mazel Tops.  They were great to work with and quick on shipping, and the quality was excellent.
