Reputable
Plenty of reputable stores to buy cheap original lures.
www.basspro.com is good.
Good place for braid and lures is www.pokeetackle.com
I've successfully used both.

If you opt for air mail
If you opt for air mail delivery over land you might get them earlier. My tackle bag I got for there took about 8 days to get here.
