Where to buy lots of dice of specific types?

[geoffrey]

I want to buy inexpensive dice in large quantities, something like this:

20 green 4-sided dice
20 blue 6-sided dice
20 purple 8-sided dice
20 yellow 10-sided dice
20 orange 12-sided dice
20 red 20-sided dice

The colors don't have to be exactly as above. Perhaps the 8-siders would be red and the 20-siders would be purple, or whatever. The important thing is is that I need each type of die to be a different color than the other five types.

Where would you suggest I look? Fast and cheap are the primary considerations. I'm not concerned about fancy dice, or ultra-accurate dice, or nostalgic dice, or awesome dice, or pretty dice, or etc. Just plain ol' serviceable dice.

Dice are about fifty cents each. Sort listings by shape; then by price (lowest to highest). There are half-a-dozen colors to choose from (if you include white and black) so that should cover a full gaming set without color duplication. GMDice is based in the US. The fastest shipping is US Post Priority 2-Day

edit: I see that they have limited stock in some shapes and colors. You may have to do some extra work. Also, there's free regular shipping, if you can wait.

Cool suggestion.

Do online stores sell individual dice as opposed to sets? AFAIK, only game stores sell them individually.

I bought 20 of each die size (including a d% for each set), a total of 140 dice, from eBay user furoreproducts after reaching out to them via eBay messaging. I set up starter dice sets for new players, so if I said, "Roll the red die," everyone would roll the d20.

I spent £50 (about US$70), and that was including shipping from the UK to the US. That's almost exactly 50¢ per die after shipping.

This was last year, and it was a custom order, so I'm not sure if the seller will still work with you for an order like this, but it might be worth it if you find that it's a worthwhile price.

I bought thousands of dice through various Amazon vendors over the past ten or fifteen years. They're really not what you'd call "high quality" but they function.
