called Lodestone Pacific.  They were very happy to supply me with small 
quantities of mixed types from both manufacturers as long as the total 
order was more than USD 25.  Service was friendly and helpful, and I 
felt that I was a desired customer in spite of the fact that I was not 
buying industrial quantities.

I can heartily second that. Lodestone Pacific is an excellent supplier.
I have used them on several occasions for Fair-Rite cores. Actually,
there are only a few of these companies that will accept small orders.
Service has always been fast and good. I think they are one of the best.
Go for it!
