Where do you buy pleurothallids?
Where does everyone like to buy pleuros? I have a bee in my bonnet to get Lepanthes telipogoniflora, Lepanthopsis astrophora, Pleurothallis lewisae, and Pleurothallis dressleri and can't find them in stock anywhere (Andy's, Seattle Orchids, eBay, random googling...). Suggestions?

If you haven't already, I suggest you call Andy's instead of thinking that what's on the website is all he has available!

Seattle orchids did have the Lepanthes telipogoniflora and J&L had the Lepanthopsis astrophora but I don't think they still have them so I think your best bet, too, is to give Andy's Orchids a call.
Good luck! Hope you find them!

If you know of any shows that these guys will be attending in the US, you could always 'pre-order' from them and have them ship the orchids to you when they are in the US.

Thanks folks, I called Andy this morning and he has them! Yay! I know what my next purchase will be. (But only 3 of the 4, since the Pleuro dressleri is out of my price range for now...)

I am so happy that Andy's Orchids had them for you. Andy's Orchids is a great place. 
J&L had a sale so I had ordered the Lepanthopsis astrophora and a few other tiny orchids from them and then I had a list of orchids I wanted from Seattle Orchids and so I bought the Lepanthes telipogoniflora from them. I guess they both sold out of the orchids shortly after.
Good luck with your new purchases! I just started growing these little gems so I am going to see how I do with them before buying more but I really find them amazing. I haven't been this excited about orchids since I found out that some orchids were fragrant.....

More often than not Andy's has what you're looking for. So far he's only said no to me once, when I was looking for Oberonia huensis.
