I purchased my bulbs from HIDextra.com, I wouldn't say they are the most reliable though. After one of my bulbs blew out the other day. The only good thing about using them is they include an extra set of bulbs free of charge when you order HID kits.

At least when I called to complain, they overnighted a set of replacement bulbs. But, still that should not have happened.

I've purchased bulbs from DDMTuning.com

I've had them on my car since I bought it, about 9 months, and no problems so far... Switched from stock to 6k

Www.ddmtuning.com is a great place to get both HID headlights and HID fogs from. I got both sees of mine from there and never had any problems.
