What kind of mushrooms are you looking for? I buy dried A-grade[important]
Italian Porcinis from my local Italian deli for $30/lb. You can't beat that
on the internet. I have purchased dried morels @ $80-$100/lb on e-bay
without any complaints. With morels you have to make sure you're getting
good sized mushrooms, not those little bitty ones. Many morels come from
Oregon, in addition to France. If you find an E-bay vendor with a 99%
positive rating you shouldn't go wrong.
