A while back, I placed an order with the 6mm Shop. For those who don't know, they're located in Ohio, and sell bb's, gas, and not a whole lot else.
I found their site layout to be excellent. Easy to find everything, info on all the products (not that you need too incredibly much info about bb's and gas). Excellent selection, they carry AE, TM, and Excel bb's in all the "normal" weights, plus a good variety of heavier "sniper" bb's, as well as 134a, green, and red gas.
Prices...well, I couldn't find anyone in the states that could beat them, especially in volume. Some of their mass-order deals are absolutely wonderful.
Shipping/Service/Etc. I didn't feel the need to e-mail the 6mm Shop about any of their products (I was only ordering half a dozen bags of bb's and a can of gas), so I don't know much about service, per se. I do know that I recieved an order confirmation e-mail immediately after I placed my order. I also recieved e-mails when my payment was recieved (< 5 minutes after it was sent) and when they shipped my order (A few days later, the owners were on vacation, this was noted on *every* page on the site). I recieved the package 2 days after it was shipped, in pristine condition. It was well-packed (but how hard is it to pack 6 bags of bb's and a can of gas ) and everything was there, including a nice reciept (in addition to the one I had recieved with my payment confirmation).
Overall, I was very pleased with the experience I had with the 6mm Shop. I will (and have) do business with them again, and heartily recommend them to anyone that plans on mail-ordering BB's.
