Here are a couple of sites:
http://www.bereahardwoods.com/prices.htm#photo1b
http://www.woodturnerscatalog.com/catalog/pen_kits.html - this site only lists as pens but click on the type and lots have pencils as well
http://pocwoodworking.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWCATS&Category=73
I've got a whole list of other sites if you are interested in them. They cover about all things pen/pencil and all price ranges.

Try http://www.woodnwhimsies.com/ I have looked all over, but haven't found any cheaper prices on pens, or pencils! They don't have a major selection, but the kits they have seem to be top notch.
that is where I buy my pen kits.... They dont yet have the pencil kits though..... I guess I just wait untill they get them in May
Just for anyone woundering I found a new web site, They charge alittle more for their pens but they sell the pencils for only a little more then $3 and they sell all kinds of pens and pencils from many diffrent suppliers. They also have great service. That is worth the extra 10-25 cents a pen kit. Check them out www.woodturningz.com
I don't use slimline pencil kits for ones I sell. They are too cheap. The best pencil kits use the Schmidt mechanism.
Bill is the best one to buy most kits from.

Yeap, they are a really cheap mechanism. The schmidt is very smooth. you can buy the cartridges and convert any parker refill pen to a pencil.
