Default carboy size (and source?)

The local winery shop is ordering another seven gallon carboy for me.

As I've been reading, however, I'm wondering if this is the right size.
For six gallon batches, should I be using six gallons instead?
Will six gallons take a six gallong carboy to its neck?

And while I'm at it, is there a good source if I'm willing to order a
half dozen or so at once? They're about $20 locally.
